lyrics

Don’t know what’s going on with Fred.
But I know that Velma thinks I’m just a stupid airhead.
So I’ll smile sweetly all around,
Even at that hippy and his stinking fucking hound.

But one day I’ll step out into the unknown.
I’ll smash the fences of my safety zone.
I’ll stand up proud and blow my own trombone.
’Cause one day I’ll solve a mystery on my own.

One day I’ll solve a mystery on my own.

Louis Burrows: Vocals, Clarinet
Jack Dunn: Vocals
Robyn Gibson: Vocals
Alan Jenkins: Guitar, Trombone, Vocals
Jonathan Lemon: Vocals
Geraldine McKewen: Vocals
Steven Plesiosaur: Drums, Vocals
Lane Steinberg: Vocals
Yukio Yung: Vocals, Piano, Bass, Drinks, Brass, Glockenspiel
Vladimir Zajkowiecz: Guitar, Vocals

[The last line of the chorus ("one day I’ll solve a mystery on my own") repeats at the end of the song, so we thought it would nice to get everyone who had contributed to album to sing it alone. Louis takes the responses in the second chorus. In order of appearance, the singers at the end are: Lane, Geri, Alan, Robyn, Vladimir, Lemon, Steve and Jack.]
