Check out this song on Facebook from the Lexington, KY Police Department. Here are the lyrics.
My Stolen Things: A Lexington Police Department Sing-along
Original song: "My Favorite Things" from Rodgers and Hammerstein's The Sound of Music
Cash in my wallet and credit cards, too,
My Driver’s license and change that was loose,
A leather purse hidden under my seat,
These are a few of my stolen things.
Cell phones and laptops and iPads and Kindles,
Expensive camera and a box of tools,
Shiny gold jewelry like my wedding ring,
These are a few of my stolen things.
Rifles and handguns and sharp pointy knives,
Clothing and shoes and glasses for my eyes,
Musical instruments, my guitar strings,
These are a few of my stolen things.
If the thieves come, checking handles, in my neighborhood,
I simply remember my stolen things,
And to always lock my doors!
