Lyrics
Robert – Tracey Bunn and Peter Hayes 2026
I know you did it Robert
I’ve looked into your eyes
I’ve rifled through your pockets
I’ve borne your alibis
I’ve heard your testimony
You were elsewhere on that night
But I know you did it Robert
And it’s time to put it right
CH: So I’m gonna buy a shovel and I’m gonna dig a pit
I’m gonna stand you in it and I’ll wait till you admit
I’m hoping you’ll be honest out of fear or out of shame
I know you did it Robert, there’s no one else to blame
I know you did it Robert
I saw you heading West
I saw you hide the goggles
I watched you hide the vest
I know you did it Robert
Though you swear it wasn’t you
While keeping to the shadows
I spotted your tattoo
CH: So I’m gonna…
I know that you did it
I know it was you
I know that you’re guilty
So now you know what I must do
And when I hold you Robert
I’ll tell you of my plans
To take the justice system
Into my own hands
I’ll slice your throat from ear to ear
And bleed you like a pig
I’ll take my precious shovel
And then I’ll start to dig
CH: So I’m gonna…
Yes I’m gonna buy a shovel it’s the least that I can do
I’m gonna buy a shovel and I’m gonna come for you
I’m hoping you’ll be honest out of fear or out of shame
I know you did it Robert, there’s no one else to blame
There’s no one else to blame
