[English]

[Music]

is there nothing I can say nothing I can

do change your mind I'm so in love with

you to deep you can't get

out

just rich man's

house oh

no

no

no oh

God oh God what have I done don't worry

my father's the forgiving sort well set

when it comes to me Triple Espresso or

Hair of the Dog no oh right

both he please tell me we

didn't did we ever and I'm pretty sure

we made Rosemary's Baby I detective it

was extraordinary the heat the

gymnastics I mean you had moves that

made even the devil blush I know this is

bad whatever happened last night don't

tell me I'd rather not know well we

didn't do the

nasty we didn't nope I turned you down

cold you the guy who's been trying to

get me into the sack since day one had a

chance to sleep with me and you did what

why am I naked what do you mean you

don't remember the part where you passed

out woke up again and shouted at me it's

too hot in this festar hole I believe it

was then tore your clothes off and

proceeded to hog the bed I do that

sometimes when I'm upset and you'd be

upset too if your ex dumped you by text

no I'd be relieved if then dumped me

even still it's very out of character to

see you so unused and out of character

for me too the whole not wanting to have

sex with you thing when here's the

strange part this gave me quite a rush

can't explain it I've been thinking

about it all

night okay last night was a fluke for

both of us never happened leave it at

that

right you snore by the way like an

Albanian field

wench after our sleepover last night

what's the hole at the back for not mine

was are not mine more of a Commando girl

fair enough dear me if someone woke up

on the wrong side of a 38

yeah single gunshot wounded the chest no

wallet tan marks where a ring and a

watch were lifted a staircase robbery is

that a thing now this is the duner

foundation they help the homeless and

the

underprivileged so who's The Dashing

corpse Tim dunair himself head of the

foundation former NBA star notorious

Playboy he was into drugs gambling women

my typical

Wednesday but then he left Pro Bal and

he turned his life around he dedicated

himself to philanthropy he was

beloved bad boy turned good it's

interesting are you emit tson you found

the body I'm detective Decker can you

tell us what happened I volunteer for

the foundations outreach program came

here to meet him and he was just lying

here how did you know Mr duner he

sponsored me to come to La after the

earthquake in Haiti Tim was my mentor

handsome and saintly did you see anyone

else at the scene or notice anything

strange they there was a guy outside he

ran when he saw me I gave the cops a

description think he was homeless did Mr

dle ever speak of a certain

philanthropic high after one of his

selfless acts you for example say when

he chose not to sleep with a drunken

woman what did I say something

wrong we are questioning a

minor I'm sorry about your mentor and

we'll call you if we have any more

questions

what I just feel quite connected to our

victim you are nothing like Tim duner

bad boy with a heart of gold I am

everything like Tim may as well be

solving my own murder only you could

turn a tragic death into an excuse to

talk about

you well who else would I talk about

Key Grammar Structures

• is there nothing I can say nothing I can do change your mind

  ➔ Double negative for emphasis, rhetorical question

  ➔ The phrase "nothing I can say nothing I can do" uses a **double negative** to strongly convey the speaker's helplessness. It's also a **rhetorical question** – not seeking an answer, but expressing despair.

• just rich man's house oh no no no

  ➔ Interjection, repetition for emphasis

  ➔ "Oh no no no" is a series of **interjections** expressing shock or dismay. The **repetition** amplifies the emotional impact.

• I detective it was extraordinary the heat the gymnastics

  ➔ Unconventional sentence structure, use of noun strings

  ➔ The sentence "I detective it was extraordinary the heat the gymnastics" is grammatically unusual. It uses a series of **noun strings** ("the heat," "the gymnastics") without clear connecting verbs, creating a fragmented, impressionistic effect. The use of 'I detective it' is also non-standard.

• don't tell me I'd rather not know

  ➔ Conditional mood (would rather), negative imperative

  ➔ "I'd rather not know" uses the **conditional mood** with "would rather" to express a preference. "Don't tell me" is a **negative imperative** – a command not to do something.
