Lyrics for Dirty Work
Times are hard You're afraid to pay the fee So you find yourself somebody Who can do the job for free When you need a bit of lovin' 'Cause your man is out of town That's the time you get me runnin' And you know I'll be around I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah I don't wanna do your dirty work, no more I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah Light the candle Put the lock upon the door You have sent the maid home early Like a thousand times before Like the castle in its corner In a medieval game I foresee terrible trouble And I stay here just the same I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah I don't wanna do your dirty work, no more I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah I don't wanna do your dirty work, no more I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah I don't wanna do your dirty work, no more I'm a fool to do your dirty work, oh yeah I don't wanna do your dirty work
