Martha Goldman S Detective Agency Lyrics

[Verse 1]
From the moment that we met
It's been obvious to me that you're adept
At finding answers to hard questions
I'm far too squeamish, how can someone be this calm
When confronted with a crime scene that looks like an abattoir?

[Chorus]
I do not know
Searching for evidence
(I do not know)
Hearing footsteps slowly creeping, this is getting much too tense
Come on, gumshoe, be the one to help me out

[Verse 2]
I've had trouble sleeping since that villain got away
I keep dreaming that he'll kill us and we'll share a shallow grave
There is no one I can trust
And the cops are so corrupt
All protected by the politicians in their wicked cults

[Chorus]
It's so unjust
Searching for evidence
(It's so unjust)
Hearing footsteps slowly creeping, this is getting much too tense
Come on, gumshoe, be the one to help me out


[Bridge]
It's you (just you) I'd take the case to, no second thought
It's you (just you) I'd take the case to, to get 'em caught
Frankly, you were born to lead your own detective agency
It's you (just you) I'd take the case to
I'd take the case to you

[Chorus]
Slaughtering the dissidents
Now the coroner is waiting, this is getting much too tense
Come on, gumshoe, be the one to help me out

[Outro]
Come on, gumshoe, be the one to help me out
(Help me out)
Come on, gumshoe, be the one to help me out
(Help me out)
Come on, gumshoe, be the one to help me out
(Help me out)
Come on, gumshoe, be the one to help me out
