paroles de chanson Private Investigations - Live Version - Dire Straits

It's a mystery to me - the game commences
For the usual fee - plus expenses
Confidential information - it'a a diary
This is my investigation - it's not a public inquiry
I go cheking 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 set of lies
Blinds on the window and a pain behind the eyes
Scarred for life - no compensation
Private investigations
