[String Intro]

[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Chorus 1]
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

[Chorus]
You've seen it all before
Been there since time began
You know what's coming next
Everything gets out of hand

[Verse 2]
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 witness
[Pre-Chorus 2]
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

[Chorus]
You've seen it all before
Been there since time began
You know what's coming next
Everything gets out of hand

[Guitar Solo]

[Pre-Chorus 3]
It's a dirty business, it's a crying shame
You blink your eye and all the laws have changed
They say the vulture is a bird of prey
No-one told me it would come this way

[Chorus/Outro]
You seen it all before
Been there since time began
You know what's coming next
Everything, everything gets out of hand
