"She Will Not Tell Who Slew"
Parody Written by:

The Lyrics
She will not tell who slew.
The Murder! crime.
A juror votes “Guilty” then rues:
“She was lyin’,
There’s no denyin’!”
He goes on a gambit,
Of hunting him down:
The man who had brandished
The poker and bashed the victim’s crown.
He finds the fella who
Had done the crime.
This guy’s
The type who
Slew then flew
Also flew for the crowds
He’s way up there
On the high trapeze. . .
Now call for shrouds—
He’s deceased.
He is the fella who
Did suicide.
The Murder! crime.
