Lyrics

an almost incredible event comes out of the blue
and I have to allow a phase of unbelief this time
I crashed into a woman in my normal supermarket
she’s looking for some instant meal she wants to store

but when we reached the dogfood department
I remember where I had seen the dog before

I followed her in a very very cautious way
insecure because of her detective flair
but totally informed ‘bout your very own habits
and really amused that I knew it before you do it

but please believe me this is more than true
so open your eyes and you can not survey

oh misses Columbo it’s so nice to meet you
oh misses Columbo it’s so nice to speak to you
oh misses Colombo I forget to ask you:

I will not be indiscreet but just one simple question:
did you pass your final examination in household-bookkeeping
and what about your waterbed-passion
a funny story he once told us speaking of him reminds me
what do you really think about stinky cigar butts
his new hairstyle and this very old dress,
his unironed trenchcoat or this lazy sleeping dog

oh misses Columbo it’s so nice to meet you
oh misses Columbo it’s so nice to speak to you
oh misses Colombo I forget to ask you:

if all this was true
