The Events Leading Up To The Collapse Of Detective Dulllight歌词

There was jello in the fingerprints detective dulllight discovered

It proved to be the most important finding in the case

And where as detectives slocks and slovits
Slobbered over smutty photographs

Dulllight had a better lead to follow

He followed the ringing to the telephone where a voice asked

Excuse me aren't you so and so

Oh so and so since you left I have been eating only sweets
Cause they remind me of you

He felt this surely was a clue

So he climbed into the tub wearing his underwear and overcoat

Jumped aboard the model boat and followed the water down the drain

In his brain there are file cabinets

And secretaries filing their nails downstairs

But I don't want to talk about that room downstairs

At this moment detective slocks and slovets
Realize that since they had reported on the crime scene
This morning each of them has aged over fifty years

Two butterflies land on their shoulders and harmonize softly in their ears

Where did all the time go

Did you think that you'd stay young forever

But at least you're still together

The held hands in the moonlight

The butterflies flew away which prompted slovit's to say

Slocks removed a fountain pen from his breast pocket

Drove it deep into slovit's throat and began screeching

Death to the parchment whale the robot I am lasaile

While in prison slocks wrote one of the most revered exercises in free verse titled

The cause of gauze oh the cause of gauze

The manuels have fondled many memories from my lap though
Each memory has its own lap and swimmers swim laps

Even swimmers have laps however and while in that
Condition many require a delicate gauze

I desire only this in my decrepitude
That I will have one more opportunity
To serve as a gauze for my fellow man

And that in that state of gauze can somehow disturb
The world less often with my prickly fingers

When detective dulllight returning from the catacombs

First heard the news of the slocks and slovets
Stabbing and subsequent poetry enterprise
He immediately fell to the floor and began plucking peaches from his cheeks

This eventually became a tiresome activity

So he evaporated into the cream a float a child's bedtime coco
