Private Eye

[Verse 1]

Dragged this lake, lookin' for corpses

Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards

Pieces of planes and black box recorders

Don't lie (Don't lie)

I've been preoccupied with these sick sixth senses

That sense DNA on barbed wire fences

Maybe some day, I'll find me a suspect that has no alibi


[Instrumental Break]


[Verse 2]

New Year's Eve was as borin' as heaven

I watched flies fuck on Channel 11

There was no one to kiss, therе was nothin' to drink

Except some old rotten milk somеone 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


[Chorus]

At the right place at the right time

I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine

And I won't have to quit doin' fucked up shit

For anyone but me

At the right place at the right time

It will have been worth it to stand in line

And you won't have to stop saying, "I love cops"

For anyone but me, your private eye


[Bridge]

Dragged this lake, lookin' for corpses

Dusted for prints, pried up the floorboards

Pieces of planes and black box recorders

Don't lie (Don't lie)

I've been preoccupied with these sick sixth senses

That sense DNA on barbed wire fences

Maybe some day, I'll find me a suspect that has no alibi


[Chorus]

At the right place at the right time

I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine

And I won't have to quit doin' fucked up shit

For anyone but me

At the right place at the right time

It will have been worth it to stand in line

And you won't have to stop saying, "I love cops"

For anyone but me, your private eye


[Post-Chorus]

Your private eye


[Instrumental Break]


[Chorus]

At the right place at the right time

I'll be dead wrong and you'll be just fine

And I won't have to quit doin' fucked up shit

For anyone but me

At the right place at the right time

It will have been worth it to stand in line

And you won't have to stop saying, "I love cops"

For anyone but me, your private eye
