I dragged this lake looking for corpses
 Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards
 Pieces of planes and black box recorders
 Don't lie
 (Don't lie)

 And I've been preoccupied with these sick, sick senses
 That sense DNA on barbed wire fences
 Maybe someday I'll find me a suspect
 That has no alibi

 The New Year's Eve was as boring as heaven
 I watched flies [bad word] on channel 11
 There was no one to kiss, there was nothing to drink
 Except some old rotten milk someone left in the sink

 And there's no ring, there's no ring on the phone anymore
 There's no reason to call, I passed out on the floor
 Smoked myself stupid and drank my insides raisin' dry

 But at the right place, at the right time
 I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine
 I won't have to quit doing [bad word] up [bad word]  For anyone but me

 And at the right place, at the right time
 It will have been worth it to stand in line
 You won't have to stop, saying, "I love cops"
 For anyone but me, your private eye
