Bad Detective

(album: Too Much Too Soon - 1974)

Well, I got a tip from China
That they stole ol Kubla Khan
So I took an ocean liner
Down to old Hong Kong

I was searching round the sea port
I called up all the gang
They's tripping and a shaking
When they called me Charley Chan

Cause I'm a bad detective
And I always get my man
Baby yes, I am
Said I'm a bad detective
I could stand a lending hand
Oh baby, yes I can

Honorable son
I've been a number one
Eat a fried rice
And a egg foo yung
Stand looking at me there
With your stupid face
While your pop (me) goes out
And solves the case

Cause I'm a bad detective
And I always get my man
Baby yes, I am
Said I'm a bad detective
I could stand a lending hand
Oh baby, yes I can
