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 searchin round the sea port
And called up all the gang
They were trippin and a shakin
When they saw me charley chan

Cause i'm a bad detective
And i always get the man, yes I do
Said i'm a bad detective
And I stick you in the can
Just as soon as I can

Honorable son, number one
Eat a fried rice and a egg foo yung
Sitting there feeding your stupid face
While your pop goes out and solves the case

Causе i'm a bad detective
And i always gеt the man, yes I do
Cos i'm a bad detective
And I stick you in the can
Just as soon as I can
Trapped in a warehouse
And much to our surprise
There were 5 big machine guns
Staring in our eyes
With a step over and a good old
Then I tied their hands
And Birmingham cried out loud and clear
“Mr Chan’s in command.”

Cause i'm a bad detective
And i always get the man, yes I do
I’m a bad detective
And I stick you in the can
Just as soon as I can

Well, Mr Chan solved the case
But Mr Chan, Mr Chan
Feet do fail me now
Mr Chan, Mr Chan…
