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 - is 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 I find the reason I still can 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 your eyes
Scarred for life - no compensation
Private Investigation
