[Verse 1]
Somebody went and killed some people
They know who
The evidence fits around the facts
Like a favourite shoe
Nobody knows where the corpses are
Their whereabouts unknown
The killer's in a frenzy
And he's getting on the phone
So they put their thinking hats on
Spread out in their cars

[Refrain]
But only I, only I
Only I know where the bodies are

[Verse 2]
You know they can ID someone
From one cell of skin
But they couldn't spot a crime scene
If the killer went and let 'em in
To genetic fingerprinting
We all take off our hats
To hide the little stains that spread
Across the welcome mat
So they put their best foot forward
Wish upon a star
[Refrain]
But only I, only I
Only I know where the bodies are

[Bridge]
I know where the bodies are

[Verse 3]
Lawyers defending guilty men
Depending on the bid
The question isn't if they're guilty
But if they'll get acquitted
Justice dies unjustified
Underneath the eagle
Pain's too difficult to prove
And in marriage it's still legal
Oh, to think that we were once naive
Think we've come this far

[Refrain]
Only I, only I
Only I know where the bodies are
And I'm not telling you

[Bridge]
I know where the bodies are
[Verse 4]
Some people don't wanna know
The facts behind the scam
Or see "Who could I be?"
Peeking out behind "The great I am"
Most of us got enough to think about
Husbands and wives
To notice pointless death's become
A brand new way of life
And this is just a sandwich board
That I wear out in the park

[Refrain]
Saying only I, only I
Only I know where the bodies are
Only I
Only I know where the bodies are
Only I
Only I know where the bodies are

[Outro]
And I'm not telling you
No, I'm not telling you
And I'm not telling you
