Puffer:
Here to track this man in black am I
With one clue as to the who and why!
Datchery:
I find myself
In this aggravating form and face
Gravitating to this place
Navigating t'wards this case!
Puffer & Datchery:
I've come to town, my ear at every door
Half the clown, yet crafty at the core
Settling down to settle up the score
A kettle full of fish I'll fry
I'll cook each goose, (to mix a metaphor)
and unloose a mighty meteor
I'm settling down to settle up the score
Datchery:
My mettle will be more than tested!
Datchery & Puffer:
A debt'll be repaid before I've rested - oh!
Datchery:
Drood
Puffer:
No word
Datchery:
What's brewed
Puffer:
No grave
Datchery:
No tomb
Datchery & Puffer:
Who'll say who's done what and why to whom?
Datchery:
I'm on the scent, I'm inventing everything I am
Puffer:
Where's the sacrificial lamb?
Datchery:
'Ere in bloody Cloisterham
Puffer & Datchery:
I've come to town to ask at every door
Did Edwin Drood drown or was he washed ashore?
I'm settling down to settle up the score:
Red herring on a briny beach!
I'll solve this yet
As Grand Inquisitor!
Make a bet
You've met me once before!
Make a threat?
I only wish you would!
I'm settling up the score for good!
