Dire Straits "Private Investigations" lyrics

Translation to:deeleshehusrtr

Private Investigations

It's a mystery to me ... the game commencesFor the usual fee ... plus expensesConfidential information ... it's in a diaryThis is my investigation ... it's not a public inquiry

I go checking out the reports ... digging up the dirtYou get to meet all sorts in this line of workTreachery and treason ... there's always an excuse for itAnd 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 liesBlinds on the windows and a pain behind the eyes

Scarred for life ... no compensationPrivate investigations
