Professor
Plum,
please
quickly come,
There's
commotion down the hall.
Colonel
Mustard,
Put down
your bowl of custard,
And hop
on the ball.
Mrs.
Peacock,
I know
it's three o'clock,
But
Please wake up quick.
There's
something you've got to see,
Though it
will definitely make you sick.
Mr.
Green,
I don't
mean to be mean,
But get
up right away.
Mrs.
White,
It's the
middle of the night,
But
there's something I must say.
Lovely
Miss Scarlet,
Get away
from the bar, let
Go of
your glass, leave your beer.
There's a
corpse over there,
Murdered
in a chair,
And the
killer must be here.
Mr.
Boddy's Dead,
He was
wounded in the head,
Who's the
culprit,
I don't
know,
But he
committed murder an hour ago.
Mr.
Boddy's dead,
He was
wounded in the head,
With a
candlestick, a rope, or a pipe of lead,
The only
thing for sure is that he really bled.
And that
he's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's really dead.
Alright,
all you villains,
Alright,
all you clowns,
Gather
around.
No one
can leave,
Until the
murderer among us has been found.
It
could've been me,
Or she,
or he,
Or anyone
of you,.
I really
haven't got a... clue
He
could've killed himself,
Or been
killed by an elf,
But doubt
that either one of those is true.
That's
why I spy and cast the evil eye,
At every
one of you.
I've
evidence by heresay,
Of a
conspiracy,
So it
could have been you all,
Who
brought about good Boddy's fall.
Mr.
Boddy's Dead,
He was
wounded in the head,
Who's the
culprit,
I don't
know,
But he
committed murder an hour ago.
Mr.
Boddy's dead,
He was
wounded in the head,
With a
candlestick, a rope, or a pipe of lead,
he only
thing for sure is that he really bled.
And that
he's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's dead, he's really dead.
But none
of you did see,
And I
giggle happily,
When all
the time,
The
killer was me.
It was
me.
All
along,
The
killer was me.
With
a knife, in the study.
