Private Investigations (Edit)

Private Investigations (Edit) - Dire Straits

Lyrics by：Mark Knopfler

Composed by：Mark Knopfler

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
