PRIVATE INVESTIGATION - DIRE STRAITS

Its a mystery to me/The game commences/For the usual fee/Plus expenses/Confidential information/Its in a diary/This is my investigationIts not a public inquiry/I go checking out the report/Digging up the dirt/You get to meet all sorts/In the line of work/Treachery and treason/Theres always an excuse for it/And when I find the reason/I still cant get used to it/And what have you got at the end of the day?/What have you got to take away?/A bottle of whisky and a new set of lies/Blinds on the window and a pain behind the eyes/Scarred for life/No compensation/Private investigations
