Lyrics

[Intro]
G9
Dm
  Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.

[Verse 1]
Forty detectives this week,
forty detectives strong.
Takin' a stroll down Love Street.
Strollin', is that so wrong?
Can I get my codefendant?

[Pre-Chorus]
D7
Hump, de, bump, doop, bodu.
Bump, de, hump, doop, bop.
Hump, de, bump, doop, bodu.
Oh, no.
Bump, de, hump, doop, bodu.
Hump, de, bump, doop, bop.
Bump, de, hump, doop, bodu.
Bump, bump. Whoo!

[Chorus]
Dm
  It must have been a hundred miles,
Bb7
   or any of a hundred styles.
A7                   G7
  It's not about the smile you wear but
Bb           C
  the way we make out.
Dm
  When I was an all aloner,
Bb7
   uh, nothin' but a two beach comber.
A7        G7
  Anybody seen the sky?
    Bb          C        Dm
I'm,  I'm wide awake now.

[Verse 2]
Dm
Workin' the beat as we speak,
workin' the belle du monde.
Believe in the havoc we wreak.
Believin', is that so wrong?
Can I get my codefendant?

[Pre-Chorus]
D7
Hump, de, bump, doop, bodu.
Bump, de, hump, doop, bop.
Hump, de, bump, doop, bodu.
Bump, de, hump, doop, bodu.
Hump, de, bump, doop, bop.
Bump, de, hump, doop, bodu.
Bump, bump. Come on!

[Chorus]
Dm
  It must have been a hundred miles,
Bb7
   or any of a hundred styles.
A7                   G7
  It's not about the smile you wear but
Bb           C
  the way we make out.
Dm
  When I was an all aloner,
Bb7
   uh, nothin' but a two beach comber.
A7        G7
  Anybody seen the sky?
    Bb          C
I'm,  I'm wide awake now.

[Interlude]
Dm
  Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya, gon' shake ya.
Gon' get ya.

[Pre-Chorus]
D7
Hump, de, bump, doop, bodu.
Bump, de, hump, doop, bop.
Hump, de, bump, doop, bodu.
Oh no!
Bump, de, hump, doop, bodu.
Hump, de, bump, doop, bop.
Bump, de, hump, doop, bodu.
Bump, bump.

[Chorus]
Dm
  Uh, listen to me what I said,
Bb7
   uh, try to get it through your head.
A7                G7
  A little bit of circumstance
   Bb            C
and  a chance to make out.
Dm
  Uh, livin' in the citadel,
Bb7
   it's hard enough to be yourself.
A7                G7
  Waiting for the bell to toll
   Bb          C
and  I'm wide awake now.
Dm
  It must have been a hundred miles,
Bb7
   or any of a hundred styles.
A7                   G7
