  • Overture:I Guess It Was 5 A.M.

    Joe:
    I guess it was five A.M.
    A homicide had been reported
    From one of those crazy mansions up on sunset
    Tomorrow every front page
    is going to lead with this story
    You see an old time movie star is involved,
    Maybe the biggest star of all
    But before you read about it,
    before it gets distorted
    By those Hollywood piranhas,
    if you wanna know the real facts
    You've come to the right party
    Let me take you back six months,
    I was at the bottom of the barrel
    I'd had a contract down at Fox,
    but I'd fallen foul of Darryl
    Now I had a date at Paramount,
    Along with about a thousand other writers
    If it didn't come up roses,
    I'd be covering funerals
    Back in Dayton, Ohio,
    I'd hidden my car three blocks away
    Turned out to be a smart move.
