Shiny silver faces, coloured paper falling into their hand
Never to be seen again it must have been a one night stand
Up until the dawn I could have sworn that everything was alright
Thieving bastards stole my life and legged it off into the night

It's a dirty business, it's a dirty game
Everybody different but they're all the same
They draw you in, you hear a siren call
Build you up so they can see you fall
You've seen it all before
Been there since time began
You know what's coming next
Everything gets out of hand

They've got the lot and god knows what they think that the deserve even more
Psychopathic tendencies, they've got a lot of answer for
Scratch my back and I'll stab yours, no wonder it's a universal sickness
Who are they, you well might ask, come with me and you can be my whitness

It's a dirty business it's a crying shame
You blink your eye and all the laws have changed
They draw you in, you hear a siren call
Build you up so they can see you fall
You've seen it all before
Been there since time began
You know what's coming next
Everything gets out of hand

It's a dirty business it's crying shame
You blink your eye and all the laws have changed
They say the vulture is a bird of prey
Nobody told me it would come this way
You seen it all before
Been there since time began
You know what's coming next
Everything, everything gets out of hand
