16,116. MACHEATH LIVES HERE?

MACHEATH LIVES HERE?
So tell me, is this the place? 
Professor Moriarity and Doctor
Mabuse as well? How these
killer names stalk here the 
sidewalk, I'll never know.
Every streetlamp along
this way wears a densing 
fog - to hide the place
of day.
-
All these master criminals, I
grow tired of. The girls are
lovely, yet they tire me out.
These same preposterous 
routines become to hard to
take. Leave the bodies, and
and run away, Jake. This
beggar's opera has too many 
entrails. Shade this housefront 
from Death, with a capital D.
