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, no more
