Lyric Down And Out

It s good to be here! How ve you been?
Check my begs 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! A fresher face!

I need a shower, take a nap
I ll meet you in the bar, 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 for ever
So it s with regret 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 just 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, 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 just show me the door, show me someone who ll do it better
