Detectives

why don’t –
you sing me the blues
you have spent all night
telling me about your shoes

why don’t
you sing me the blues
you have spent all night
laying down the clues

is this agatha christie
is this sherlock holmes
hope is feisty,
let me go home

why don’t –
you sing me the blues
you have spent all night
talking round robin news
i am peeling off the wall
and quite amused
i say how tall?
and you just look confused
why don’t –
you sing me the blues
