Not really a fan of Dire Straits but they did do a song called "Private Investigations" which would be quite apt. Also, "Watching the Detectives", Elvis Costello. "Spy (in the house of love", Was Not Was.
Although my favourite, if 'Boro lose, would be "Sucker's Prayer" by Decemberists which contains the line "I wanna throw my body in the river(side) and drown".
