Somebody went and killed some people

And they know who

The evidence fits around the facts

Like a favourite shoe

But nobody knows where the corpses are

Their whereabouts unknown

The killer's in a frenzy

And he's getting on the phone

So they got their thinking hats on

And spread out in their cars

But only I know where the bodies are



You know they can i.d. someone

From one cell of skin

But they couldn't spot a crime scene

If the killer went and let 'em in

To genetic fingerprinting

We all take off our hats

To hide the little stains that spread

Across the welcome mat

You can put your best foot forward

And wish upon a star

But only I know where the bodies are





Lawyers defending guilty men

Depending on the bid

The question isn't if they're guilty

But if they'll get acquitted

Justice goes unjustfied

Beneath a police chief and an eagle

Pain's too difficult to prove

They're not going to make pain illegal

To think that we were once naive

To think we've come this far

To think that only I know where the bodies are





Some people don't wanna know

The facts behind the scam

Or see "Who could I be?"

Peeking out behind "The great I am"

But most of us got enough to think about

Husbands and wives

To notice pointless death's become

A brand new way of life

And this is just a sandwich board

That I wear out in the park

Saying only I know where the bodies are

(And I'm not telling you.)
