Just in Case
And I hear screaming, too.
He's pinned her up against the wall.
Oh, God! What should I DO?!
They say it's not my business.
I should leave them both alone,
But she could end up DEAD tonight.
Should I pick up the phone?
Another crash, and now a "Bang!"
My GOD, that was a GUN!
Maybe she has finally put
Her husband on the run!
A thud! What if she's lying
In her blood upon the floor?
Footsteps...
Someone's running...
Fleeing quickly out the door!
I hope the WOMAN'S running...
That it's SHE who holds the gun,
But just in case...
Oh, where's my cell?
I'll dial 9-1-1.
