Its a mystery to me
The game commences
For the usual fee
Plus expensesConfidential information
Its in a diary
This is my investigation
Its not a public inquiryI go checking out the reports
Digging up the dirt
You get to meet all sorts
In this line of workTreachery and treason
Theres always an excuse for it
And when I find the reason
I still cant get used to itAnd what have you got at the end of the day?
What have you got to take away?
A bottle of whiskey and a new set of lies
Blinds on the window and a pain behind the eyesScarred for life
No compensation
Private investigations
