Down And Out |
| It’s good to be here! |
| How’ve you been? |
| Check my bags, boy! |
| Where’s my room? |
| Gotta sit on the phone, that’s my game |
| Keep up the pressure all the way! |
| I don’t want to beat about the bush |
| But none of us are getting any younger |
| There’s people out there who could take your place |
| A more commercial view, fresher face |
| I need a shower, take a nap |
| I’ll meet you in the bar, we must have a rap |
| There’s a lot on the line, a lot to say |
| And there’s something I must tell you today |
| You and I both knew the score |
| You can’t go on like this forever |
| So it’s with regret that I tell you now |
| That from this moment on |
| You’re on your own! |
| I don’t talk round corners, right between the eyes |
| If you’re slow they’ll run past you |
| Stand tall, see them falling over |
| I walk a straight line, right between the eyes |
| But show me the door, show me someone who’ll do it better |
| The drinks are on me, be my guest |
| Smoke a cigar? |
| Take the best |
| Don’t hedge your bets, we can make a deal |
| Got it in your pocket, how do you feel? |
| So glad that’s over, now you know |
| But I’m only acting under orders |
| And looking down on you from way up here |
| You’ve gotta sink or swim, get off the floor! |
| I don’t talk round corners, it’s right between the eyes |
| If you’re slow they’ll run past you |
| Stand tall, see them falling over |
| I walk a straight line, right between the eyes |
| But show me the door, show me someone who’ll do it better |
