The Case of the Hotel Who Done It
The Case of the Hotel Who Done It

Our Dog Has Eaten Our Homework
Words & Music: Glen Bennet

Let me take you to the scene of the crime.
Show you where it all began.
I'd just finished a twenty page project all about Japan.
I left it on the table when I went to bed.
In the morning I could not believe my eyes.
It was all over the floor.
You might just say, it was bite-sized.

Chorus:
Don't you know that my dog,
He ate my homework, that ole rascal Clue.
I've been working on this for a month or more,
And I finally got it right.
Why didn't somebody feed that dog last night?
The teacher said "Class, bring up your work.
You know today it's due."
I said "Teacher, oh dear teacher, can I talk to you?"
She said "I do not want to hear your excuses,
Like so many times before.
If you don't have it finished,
You can go and see the principal's door."

Chorus


Why Can't We Live in a Hotel All the Time
Words & Music: Glen Bennet

Since we walked in the front door,
We've never been treated like this before.
All this attention could easily go to our heads.
Ride the elevator to our floor.
We get our own keys to open the door.
We just can't wait to jump on both of these beds.

We've got movies in our room,
Fresh cut flowers, oh how they bloom.
Let's go get changed.
Don't be the last one in the pool.
Later on we think we'll dine.
Why, room service suits me fine.
Our friends will not believe us back at school.

Chorus:
Goodness you, goodness me.
This is life I've never seen.
The floors just sparkle.
The place really shines.
Oh, I really have to say,
I could like living life this way.
Why can't we live in a hotel all the time.
Hello, room service? How are you?
This is us in 502.
We sure hope this won't be any trouble.
We're so hungry we could eat a horse.
That's a figure of speech of course.
Did we mention we're twins?
Make everything a double.

We'd like ice cream something, real simple.
Four scoops of chocolate and two butterscotch ripple.
We'd like to keep going, but maybe we should stop.
Cover it with whipped cream and please send it up fast.
We're so hungry, don't know how long we'll last.
Put it all in a bowl, with a nice cherry on top.

Chorus
