Well, you gotta admit that many of these classic PIs are
begging to be parodied. A musical parody is not out of the
question. They've done it with westerns...
"Dancing shiv to shiv" is a good title, and I offer it for
free.

Heaven... I'm in heaven, And my roscoe roars so loud that I
can hardly speak. And I seem to find the happiness I seek,
When we're out together dancing shiv to shiv.

Now all you've got to do is write it. OK, make it Spenser and
Hawk and be done with it.
