It's a mystery to me
00:35
The game commences
00:38
For the usual fee
00:41
Plus expenses
00:44
Confidential information
00:46
It's in a diary
00:50
This is my investigation
00:52
It's not a public inquiry
00:55
I go checking out the reports
01:09
Digging up the dirt
01:12
You get to meet all sorts
01:15
In this line of work
01:18
Treachery and treason
01:21
There's always an excuse for it
01:23
And when I find the reason
01:26
I still can't get used to it
01:29
And what have you got at the end of the day?
01:43
What have you got to take away?
01:49
A bottle of whiskey and a new set of lies
01:55
Blinds on the windows and a pain behind the eyes
02:01
Scarred for life
02:47
No compensation
02:49
Private investigations
02:54

This is my investigation
It's not a public inquiry

Digging up the dirt
You get to meet all sorts

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 whiskey and a new set of lies
Blinds on the windows and a pain behind the eyes
Scarred for life
No compensation
