Today's Detective

Sweet Nancy Drew
Who knew today I’d get to be a detective?
A meter maid who’s doling tickets out in downtown Duluth
I write you up if you park too far in the street
Or fail to feed a meter
Now there’s something sweeter
An actual chance
To wear the pants of a bona fide sleuth
Someone just gave this meter maid a new directive
A murder case that could kick off a new career
I might not be a great detective
But I will be today’s detectiv
The only ticket I’ll be writing is my own tickt out of here
My own ticket out of here
(Spoken) Oh boy
What do you wear to your premiere investigation?
Is it a trench coat?
Okay, maybe that is too on the nose
What kind of hat when your back’s against the wall?
If this is haven’t solved it
This is I have solved it
What’s too revealing for a killer that you wanna expose?
Someone just gave this meter maid a new directive
A murder case that could kick off a new career
I might not be a great detective
But I will be today’s detective
The only ticket I’ll be writing
Oh I’m gonna need a notebook
God it’s so exciting
Take the handcuffs off the coat hook
Ticket I’ll be writing is my own ticket out of here
Great detective
