Double Indemnity

Los Angeles July 16 1938
I suppose you'll call this a confession when you hear it
Well I don't like the word confession

I just wanna set you right about something you couldn't see
Because it was smack up against your nose

You think you're such a hot potato as a claims manager
Such a wolf on a phony claim
Maybe you are

You were pretty good in there for a while Keyes
You said it wasn't an accident
Check
You said it wasn't suicide
Check
You said it was murder
Check
Accident in Double Indemnity

You thought you had it cold
All wrapped up in tissue paper with pink ribbons around it
It was perfect
Except it wasn't because you made one mistake
When it came to picking the killer you picked the wrong guy

You wanna know who killed Didrikson?
Hold tight to that cheap cigar of yours Keyes
Insurance salesman
35 Years old
Unmarried
No visible scars
Until a while ago that is

I killed Didrikson
I killed him for money
For a woman
I didn't get the money
and I didn't get the women
Pretty isn't it
