Bad Detective

Well, I got a tip from China

That they stole old Kubla Khan

So I took an ocean liner

Down to old Hong Kong

I was searching round the sea port

I called up all the gang

They's trippin' and a-shakin'

When they called me Charlie Chan

'Cause I'm a bad detective

And I always get my man

Oh baby, yes I am

Said I'm a bad detective

I could stand a lending hand

Oh baby, yes I can

Honorable son

Oh baby, number one

Eat a fried rice

And a egg foo yung

Starin' at me there

With your stupid face

While your Papi goes out

And then solves the case

'Cause I'm a bad detective

And I always get my man

Baby, yes I am

Said I'm a bad detective

I could stand a lending hand

Oh baby, yes I can

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, okay

I'm a bad detective

And I always get my man

Baby, yes I am

Said, I'm a bad detective

I could stand here in a can

Oh baby, yes I can

So we're trapped up in a warehouse

Much to our surprise

By big machine guns

Starin' in our eyes

Let's step on their toes

Baby, judo chop, get inside their heads

Then Birmingham cried it loud, and said

(Cherry couldn't come in)

And I'm a bad detective

And I always get my man

Baby, yes I am

Said I'm a bad detective

I could stand here in a can

Baby, yes I will

Well Mister Chan solved the case

And everything's pretty cool

Everything's almost cool, anyway

I said Mister Chan, Mister Chan, Mister Chan

I said, "You got a hold on me, Mister Chan"

Mister Chan, don't fail me now

Mister Chan, Mister Chan, Mister Chan
