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 in 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 windows and a pain behind the eyes
Scarred for life - no compensation
