Artist/Band: Dire Straits
Lyrics for Song: Private Investigations
Lyrics for Album: Sultans Of Swing - Very Best Of [1998]



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 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

private investigations
