Dear mr. Detective, what clues have you? The answer is tappin at the tip of your tongue A decade of cruel crimes unsolved Of murdered women missing hearts Decorate the streets like christmas time
The detective he quivers in sheer disbelief The string of crimes his eyes have magnified Are dog-eared, deciphered and fathomed Yet answers remain in the dark somehow Like a puzzle piece thats draws no art
And any half wit fool could firmly conclude That the bloody gloved botanist down the street Is the cold callous killer He triumphs each march his shoes clack Towards the plaster peeling run down lab
A sound too high to hear Like a first grade sniper It pierced through his skull Fell down and faint to black
A shake of the skull A twist of the bones A jolt in the brain And a cut off from air
Four by four bricked wall No doors no windows A choir of cluttered phones
Tangled chords devour the space Phone wails as if its new born Each a ring a crash of metal Unwavering and unending
Voices echo asking for grace For a crumb of divine intervention What's a confused detective to do? Placed in this unsurmisable state What an unfortunate fate
How long has it been? The ringing's died down Dizzy and dazed In a strange room His eyes spiral out Into a dark fuzzy haze
Dear mr. detective, what clues have you? It hardly matters now, with the state they're in There are shards of what once was a planet Corpses floating out to outer space A glorious tessellation of the human race
The detective he quivers in sheer disbelief The end of the world has come Before he solved the murder mystery It hardly matters now Such a shame They're all dead The world is no more, no more, no more
