lyrics

Did he do it did he not?
I suspect the whole damn lot
The police, they don't know diddly squat
They're all singin' the did he do it ditty
At Precinct 12 the files thicken
For every doughnut there's a dozen victims
An anonymous tip, the plot sickens
The did he do it ditty

Scrub a rat and he'll come clean
For a new house and identity
is all it takes to make Sonny sing
the I know who did it ditty

He's the people's kind of guy
You can look him in the eye
He's got what it takes to testify
Tells the truth, the whole truth half the time

The judge winks the jury waffles
He slams his gavel as the D.A. grovels
Just like in a cheap dime store novel
The did he do it ditty
Now they know he was the one
but they never found the gun
He didn't do it, did he?
