Who Did It?

Will they ever know?

Who Did It?

No blood on the knife,

Not a soul who saw it,

No DNA on the body,

Who possibly could've done it?

They've got their heads all over,

Looking in all the wrong places,

But I've studied this scene from my window,

And I know everyone's faces.

The woman down the street

Who keeps her composure,

Is losing her marbles.

They're scattered all over.

I didn't hear a peep.

I didn't see a shadow,

But I know it's her,

By the way she wallows.

The glances at her hands,

Stray to where he was found.

She doesn't feel bad.

She buried that hatchet deep into the ground.

Walking all over it,

Like nobody knows.

Ms. Crimson, Ms. Crimson,

You are not alone.

I know your secret.

I know who you are.

I promise I'll keep it,

Even from the stars.

For Fun
