It's good to be here, how've you 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

(synth notes in parentheses)

I don't want to beat about the bush

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, we must have a rap

 There's a lot on the line, a lot to say

 There's something I must tell you today

 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

4/4

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 ov er

I walk a straight line

It's right between the eyes

Well show me the door

Show me someone who'll do it better

 5/4 Back To D Bass Pedal: Organ Chords: , , , , ,

 The drinks are on me, be my guest

Smoke a cigar, take the best

 Don't hedge your bets, we can make a deal

You got it in your pocket and how 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 got to sink or swim, get off the floor

Stand tall, see them falling ov er

Right between the eyes

Well show me the door

Show me someone who'll do it better
