Down and Out

[Verse 1] It's good to be here, how've ya been? Check my bags, boy, where's my room? I sit on the phone, that's my game Keep up the pressure all the way! [Chorus] I don't wanna 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] You and I both know the score You can't go on like this forever So it's with regret I tell you now That from this moment on, you're on your own [Bridge] 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 It's right between the eyes Well show me the door Show me someone who'll do it better [Verse 3] The drinks are on me, be my guest Smoke a cigar? Take the best Well don't hedge your bets, we can make a deal You got it in your pocket, now how do you feel? [Chorus] 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 [Synthesizer Solo] [Bridge] 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 Well show me the door Show me someone who'll do it better
