It's Going Down
Criminal Symphony: Heist Unfolds
Lyrics
Red hot tip from an inside man
Receiving a valuable tip from an insider
Hundred large, cash on hand
Possessing a significant amount of cash
Casin' the joint, no cop on the beat
Scouting the location without police presence
Quarter-past three no one on the street
It's late at night (quarter-past three), and the streets are empty
It's goin' down
An event or action is about to take place
Down down down down down
Emphasizing that something significant is happening
It's goin' down
-Click click click, alarm bypass
Attempting to disable the alarm system
Diamond tip cutter, hole in the glass
Using a diamond-tipped cutter to create an entry point
Strong box safe, bust it with a hammer
Breaking open a strongbox safe with a hammer
Nifty little trick, learned it in the slammer
Referring to a clever technique learned while in prison
Get away clean, no shots fired
Successfully escaping without gunfire
Amped up on bennies, everybody's wired
Feeling energetic due to amphetamines
It's goin' down
Reiterating that a significant event is in progress
Down down down down down
-It's goin' down
-Down down down down down
-Ditch the ride, safe house, divvy up the haul
Abandoning the getaway vehicle and securing the stolen goods
Layin' low, shootin' darts, up against the wall
Keeping a low profile and passing time cautiously
Inside man wants a cut, gotta make a call
Negotiating with the insider for a share of the loot
Inside man, broken neck - nasty little fall
The insider meets an unfortunate end, possibly due to betrayal
It's goin' down
Reaffirming that a significant event is unfolding
Gang of four, out pops a gun
A group of four individuals emerges, one brandishing a gun
And then there was one
The situation becomes dangerous, reducing the group to one
It's goin' down
Repeating the intensity and inevitability of the unfolding events
Down down down down down
-It's goin' down
-Down down down down down
-It's goin' down
Concluding the narrative with a final emphasis on the impending climax
Down down down down down
