Fingerprint Lyrics
Something moving in my backyard
Left a matchbook as a calling card
Tried to follow
The trail went dry
By a phone booth
So I went inside
Underneath the receiver
You left behind
A fingerprint
Two hours later
A car went by
It's a long shot
But it caught my eye
I've been driving around all day
In the same spot
Getting further away
I was paying a meter
You left behind
A fingerprint
One of a kind
No mistaking it
It's one of a kind
A perfect negative
One of a kind
Nearly positive
It was you
Came to by a gray stone wall
By a red door down a long hall
I was tripping on my own feet
And the floor felt like a trampoline
I was thinking the worst might
Be left behind
A fingerprint
A fingerprint
It's all over me
One of a kind
One of a kind
Nearly positive
One of a kind
No mistaking it
Uh-huh
That was you
Something moving in my backyard
Left a phone booth as a calling card
Tried to follow
The trail went dry
By a matchbook
So I went inside
Underneath the receiver
You left behind
Your fingerprint
You left behind
A fingerprint
You left behind
A fingerprint
You left behind
Left a matchbook as a calling card
Tried to follow
The trail went dry
By a phone booth
So I went inside
Underneath the receiver
You left behind
A fingerprint
A car went by
It's a long shot
But it caught my eye
I've been driving around all day
In the same spot
Getting further away
I was paying a meter
You left behind
A fingerprint
No mistaking it
It's one of a kind
A perfect negative
One of a kind
Nearly positive
It was you
By a red door down a long hall
I was tripping on my own feet
And the floor felt like a trampoline
I was thinking the worst might
Be left behind
A fingerprint
It's all over me
One of a kind
Nearly positive
One of a kind
No mistaking it
Uh-huh
That was you
Left a phone booth as a calling card
Tried to follow
The trail went dry
By a matchbook
So I went inside
Underneath the receiver
You left behind
Your fingerprint
You left behind
A fingerprint
You left behind
A fingerprint
You left behind

I think it sounds like someone describing to detectives what happened. And then detective found fingerprints all over.
