Lyrics
[Piano into]
[Verse 1]
In the heart of the night, under a lamp that flickers,
Stands a man with a clue and a glass that snickers.
Slick Sam’s his name, the mystery’s his game,
Got a coat from a dame and a rep that’s tame.
[bass drop, verse]
He’s the sleuth with moves so sly,
Dancing through shadows, under the sable sky.
With a wink and a nod, he’ll solve any façade,
In a world that's odd, he’s the detective god.
[explosive saxophone solo]
[Verse 2]
Laughs in his wake, with each step he’s taking,
Chasing a ghost through dreams that are waking.
His hat's slightly crooked, his charm’s off the books,
Catching crooks with looks, in all the nooks.
Catching crooks with looks, in all the nooks.
[saxophone solo]
[bridge]
oooooooooooohhh ooooooooohhhh
oooooooooooohhh ooooooooohhhh
[verse]
In his pocket, a candy stash, and in his mind, a plan so brash.
Chasing shadows, dodging traps, and closing cases in a snap.
But don’t be fooled by his odd socks,
He’s the slyest fox, unlocking every paradox!
[bridge]
oooooooooooohhh ooooooooohhhh
oooooooooooohhh ooooooooohhhh
[verse]
In a caper with a twist, where the fog insists,
He sambas through the alley, with a finale so rally.
Sipping on a soda pop, he spins and takes a hop,
Slick Sam’s on the case, with a jolly in his pace!
[interlude]
[bridge]
oooooooooooohhh ooooooooohhhh
oooooooooooohhh ooooooooohhhh
[Verse]
In the heart of the night, under a lamp that flickers,
Stands a man with a clue and a glass that snickers.
Slick Sam’s his name, the mystery’s his game,
Got a coat from a dame and a rep that’s tame.
[verse]
There’s jazz in his step, a rhythm so bold,
Spinning stories untold about the hearts he’s sold.
In love with a mystery, it’s his favorite history,
Lost in a blistery plot, it’s no misery.
[interlude]
[verse]
He’s the gumshoe with moves so sly,
Dancing through shadows, under the sable sky.
With a wink and a nod, he’ll solve any façade,
In a world that's odd, he’s the detective god.
