• Private investigations

It's a mystery to me,
The game commences
For the usual fee,
Plus expenses.
Confidential information,
It's in a diary,
This is my investigation,
It's not a public inquiry

I go checking out the reports,
Digging up the dirt.
You get to meet all sorts in this line of work
Treachery and treason,
There's always an excuse for it
And when I find the reason,
I still can't 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
