John Kander He Did It
GEORGIA

You can’t sleep either
BOBBY
(spoken)
Knowing that somebody in this company is a killer
I thought I saw our Director sneakin’ around
GEORGIA
Murder is a very British thing, isn’t it.
I mean, it’s almost like a hobby over there
BOBBY
Yeah, you know if I had to bet
I’d say he did it
ENSEMBLE
Ahhhhhh
He did it He did it He did it He did it He did it He
did it
I’m sure
Although he appears with his posture and pious
His principles hardly are pure
It isn’t a stretch to believe it
That murderous motive was his
He did it He did it
He did it then hid it
And now he is off to a pris-on
NIKI
You can’t sleep either
AARON
Know that somebody in this company is a killer
I thought I saw Bambi sneaking around
Maybe she killed Jessica so that you could take over
the lead
And Bambi could have your part
NIKI
Oh, that’s silly.
She should have just killed me
I never said that
AARON
If you ask me
She did it
ENSEMBLE
Ahhhhhh
She did it She did it She did it She did it She did it
She did it
I know
With laughter she hung him
And after she strung him
He swung like a yo-yo High Low
The facts are not really surprising
Our morals are probably loose
She did it She did it
She did it then hid it
And now she is off to the hoose-gow
OSCAR/CHRISTOPHER
Ahhhh
OSCAR
You can’t sleep either
CHRISTOPHER
Knowing that somebody in this company is gonna change
my blocking
OSCAR
I think I saw Aaron and Georgia sneakin’ around
CHRISTOPHER
Yeah, some writing teams are always plottin’ on how to
do in the director
And they’re all quite, quite mad
I could easily believe that they did it
ENSEMBLE
Ahhhhhh
They did it They did it They did it They did it
I’ve worked with those losers before
They went right ahead
And they slaughtered two people
The same way they slaughtered the score
Well, this is the end of their output
Their future is not worth a thing
They did it They did it
They did it then hid
And soon they’ll be going to sing-sing
