Here's a stain on the ottoman
Here's a slug in the plaster wall
Here's a glass with a fingerprint
Left out in the entrance hall
Left out in the hallway . . .
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Here's a room showing signs of struggle
Here's a tear in the victim's shirt
Here's a plate with a chalky substance
Like a footprint in the dirt
Left out in the driveway . . .
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
I wouldn't put it past the neighbour
I wouldn't put it past the maid
I wouldn't put it past the boyfriend
Yeah, he'd do it in a jealous rage
Case closed on silver shore
Can't prove a thing
Case closed on silver shore
The boyfriend wont sink
Case closed on silver shore
Can't make it stick
Case closed on silver shore
He's getting away
