Privare Investigations Lyrics - Singles - Dire Straits

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 whiskey and a new set of lies 

Blinds on the windows and a pain behind the eyes
