lyrics

RAY:
This place, should do fine for this interview
You sir, who’s the landlord round here?

BARMAN:
Not me, I’m just here for a week or two
Ernie, is off on annual leave

RAY:
I see. Is that why it’s so dead in here?
Business must have gone to the dogs

BARMAN:
No sir, it’s the brewery – it’s flooded, see?
Ernie, wants the cellar kept locked

RAY:
Locked, huh? So you’re telling me there’s no booze?
Guess I'll just have two coffees - black
Do you have a backroom that I can use?

BARMAN:
Yes sir, it’s out there in the back

Come with me, hooded man, spill everything you can, then I’ll crack open the caaaase!

RAY:
When I’m in Ernie’s Roooom
The truth will find a way
In Ernie’s Roooooom
I’ll find the answers to my questions
(BM: Keep me in) Ernie’s Room
You have to keep me safe
When we’re in Ernie’s Room
(BM: He’ll kill me!)
This mind game can be won!

BANJO MAN:
Help me! He’ll be sending his hitmen
They’re ruthless, they’ll slay me in cold blood

RAY:
Good sir, you must give more commitment
And tell me what you think I should know!

BM: I am, but a harmless old troubadour
Wandering, to help all those in need
From now on, I’ll be running forever more
Please help! Or I’ll never be freed!

RAY: If you cooperate, (BM: yes let’s collaborate) I promise I will protect you

When I’m in Ernie’s Roooom
The truth will find a way
In Ernie’s Roooooom
I’ll find the answers to my questions
(BM: I’m safe in) Ernie’s Room
No harpoon can enter here
When we’re in Ernie’s Room
This web can be unspun!
RAY:
Now then, I need something more concrete, man
Tell me, who’s the man who you fear?
Is he, someone linked to that Lighthouse Man
Blamed for all the deaths around here?

BM: Yes, sir, he’s the man at the heart of it
Hear me, leave this case well alone.
THE COBBLER- he’s the monster who started it
Let’s flee, else I’ll die on my own!

RAY: I’ll find this man of shoes
BM: Noooooooo, sir, I beg of you
RAY: Sorry I have things to doooooo

RAY: When I’m in Ernie’s Roooom
(BM: Nooooooooooooooo)
The truth will find a way
In Ernie’s Roooooom
(BM: You promissssssssed!)
RAY: I’ll find the answers to my questions
(BM: I’m not safe in) Ernie’s Room
BM: You liaaaaar!
I thought we had a deal
RAY: When we’re in Ernie’s Room, this case will come undone!
