[Puffer]
Here to track this man in black am I
With one clue as to the who and why!

[Datchery]
I find myself
In this aggravating form and face
Gravitating to this place
Navigating t'wards this case!

[Puffer & Datchery]
I've come to town, my ear at every door
Half the clown, yet crafty at the core
Settling down to settle up the score
A kettle full of fish I'll fry
I'll cook each goose, (to mix a metaphor)
And unloose a mighty meteor -
I'm settling down to settle up the score

[Datchery]
My mettle will be more than tested!

[Datchery &Puffer]
A debt'll be repaid before I've rested - oh!

[Datchery]
Drood
[Puffer]
No word

Datchery:
What's brewed

[Puffer:]
No grave

[Datchery]
No tomb...

[Datchery & Puffer]
Who'll say who's done what and why to whom?

[Datchery]
I'm on the scent, I'm inventing everything I am...

[Puffer]
Where's the sacrificial lamb?

[Datchery]
'Ere in bloody Cloisterham

[Puffer& Datchery]
I've come to town to ask at every door:
Did Edwin Drood drown or was he washed ashore?
I'm settling down to settle up the score:
Red herring on a briny beach!
I'll solve this yet
As Grand Inquisitor!
Make a bet
You've met me once before!
Make a threat?
I only wish you would!
I'm settling up the score for good!
