A lonely detective had a secret to tell
His Martini dirty, I guess it suits him well
His lips, they're soft, and he kisses me well
And his eyes are sharp, they cut through my shell, mmh

He's got a wife and kids that don't know what he's up to
Pictures on the fridge, don't know who you're makin' love to
And pardon my French, but I don't give a fuck to
Be another fool to another lonely detective

A lonely detective, I think I'm lonely as him
He's got a house in Texas, I think I'm movin' in

And my eyes knows green
(This ain't green he shows his children)
And my lips knows skin (Ooh, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo, woo)
And I know all his friend (You don't even know him)
But I know myself and I know I got the thing for
You better quit while you're ahead
I can't quit him now
It's only been three months
It's actually been three months
And six days and a quarter of a night, mmh (Ooh)

I think I got a thing for a lonely detective
I see him all the time (Woah)
I know this is reckless, I turn myself in
(Turn yourself in, turn yourself in)
He's a lonely, lonely detective

A lonely what? A lonely detective (Ooh)
A lonely what? A lonely detective (Lonely, lonely, lonely)
A lonely what? A lonely detective
(Lonely, lonely, lonely, woah)
Lonely detective
