[00:22.490] I dragged this lake looking for corpses
[00:25.400] Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards
[00:28.800] Pieces of planes and black box recorders
[00:31.800] Don't lie
[00:34.800] I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
[00:38.360] That sense DNA on barbed wire fences
[00:41.680] Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
[00:44.990] That has no alibi
[00:53.170]
[01:01.540] New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
[01:04.280] I watched flies **** on channel eleven
[01:07.660] There was no one to kiss, nothing to drink
[01:10.480] Except some old rotten milk someone left in the sink
[01:13.720] There's no ring, there's no ring on the phone anymore
[01:16.970] There's no reason to call I passed out on the floor
[01:20.410] Smoked myself stupid and drank my insides raisin dry
[01:28.200] But at the right place at the right time
[01:30.130] I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
[01:33.360] And I won't have to quit doing ****ed up shit
[01:36.610] For anyone but me
[01:39.610] At the right place at the right time
[01:42.990] It will have been worth it to stand in line
[01:46.420] And you won't have to stop
[01:48.050] Saying "I love cops" for anyone but me
[01:52.170] Your private eye
[01:56.990]
[02:06.170] I dragged this lake looking for corpses
[02:09.150] Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards
[02:12.650] Pieces of planes and black box recorders
[02:15.580] Don't lie
[02:18.880] I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
[02:21.880] That sense DNA on barbed wire fences
[02:25.130] Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
[02:28.820] That has no alibi
[02:30.850]
[02:31.410] But at the right place at the right time
[02:35.160] I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
[02:40.050] And I won't have to quit doing ****ed up shit
[02:43.420] For anyone but me
[02:44.550] At the right place at the right time
[02:47.740] It will have been worth it to stand in line
[02:51.050] And you won't have to stop
[02:52.800] Saying "I love cops" for anyone but me
[02:56.860] Your private eye
[03:02.360] Your private eye
[03:04.430]
[03:16.990] But at the right place at the right time
[03:20.110] I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
[03:23.300] And I won't have to quit doing ****ed up shit
[03:26.860] For anyone but me
[03:29.800] At the right place at the right time
[03:32.990] It will have been worth it to stand in line
[03:36.490] And you won't have to stop
[03:38.050] Saying "I love cops" for anyone but me
[03:42.300] Your private eye
