The Mystery of Edwin Drood movie - Settling Up The Score lyrics

rate me

<br>

Puffer:<br>

Here to track this man in black am I,<br>

With one clue as to the who and why!<br>

<br>

Datchery:<br>

I find myself<br>

In this aggravating form and face,<br>

Gravitating to this place,<br>

Navigating t'wards this case!<br>

<br>

Puffer & Datchery:<br>

I've come to town, my ear at every door,<br>

Half the clown, yet crafty at the core.<br>

Settling down to settle up the score.<br>

A kettle full of fish I'll fry,<br>

I'll cook each goose, (to mix a metaphor),<br>

and unloose a mighty meteor -<br>

I'm settling down to settle up the score<br>

<br>

Datchery:<br>

My mettle will be more than tested!<br>

<br>

Datchery & Puffer:<br>

A debt'll be repaid before I've rested - oh!<br>

<br>

Datchery:<br>

Drood,<br>

<br>

Puffer:<br>

No word,<br>

<br>

Datchery:<br>

What's brewed,<br>

<br>

Puffer:<br>

No grave,<br>

<br>

Datchery:<br>

No tomb...<br>

<br>

Datchery & Puffer:<br>

Who'll say who's done what and why to whom?<br>

<br>

Datchery:<br>

I'm on the scent, I'm inventing everything I am...<br>

<br>

Puffer:<br>

Where's the sacrificial lamb?<br>

<br>

Datchery:<br>

'Ere in bloody Cloisterham<br>

<br>

Puffer & Datchery:<br>

I've come to town to ask at every door:<br>

Did Edwin Drood drown or was he washed ashore?<br>

I'm settling down to settle up the score:<br>

Red herring on a briny beach!<br>

<br>

I'll solve this yet<br>

As Grand Inquisitor!<br>

Make a bet<br>

You've met me once before!<br>

Make a threat?<br>

I only wish you would!<br>

I'm settling up the score for good!<br>

<br>
