The Professional

Oh I’m back in the full effect / I can’t even hold myself erect / I got nothing that I
wanna say / I’m gonna say it anyway / I know you think that I’ve lost it, baby / I know
you think that my star is fading / Used to be a contender / Now you’re just a pretender /
Psychic karaoke every weekend / You don’t fit those clothes anymore / Why don’t you take
them back to the charity store / While you’re there you could always hand yourself in /
You’re into green issues – start recycling / You hide behind your woman when you’re out in
your town / Show her up and blame her for holding you down / Holding you down, holding you
down / You’re the only one who’s holding you down / You’re only ever polite when you’re
out of your box / Cocker’s short for… sucker / Sucker of… / Oh, oh / La na na na / Oh,
oh / Sucker of… / Oh, oh / La na na na / Oh, oh / When I got up today I had that feeling
again / Everything was OK, then the world started shaking / Now I’m trying to sleep it
away / Oh but I can’t sleep it away / Can you answer this question, can you answer it
right: / Have you ever done anything good in your life? / Have you ever done anything that
wasn’t just for yourself? / Are you capable of giving? / Are you capable of giving just
for the sake of it, without expecting anything in return? / I’m only trying to give you
what you’ve come to expect / Just another song ’bout single mothers and sex / Single
mothers and sex, single mothers and sex / Just another song ’bout single mothers and sex /
OK, you’ve heard it before, it’s nothing special / But it’s a living, can’t you see / I’m
a professional / Oh, oh / La na na na / Oh, oh / I’m a professional / Oh, oh / La na na na
/ Oh, oh / Sleep on my darling / Sleep on, don’t wake as I leave / I’ve been rehearsing
this scene so long now / Don’t interrupt me as I do it for real / The bedroom floor is
treacherous / A teacup could be disastrous / ‘Cos it’ll mean I would have to say / What
was written on the letter I posted yesterday / So that it would get here / When I was gone
/ And you awoke / Oh, she’ll meet me from the train / And she’ll never know a thing /
About how I talk with my mouth full / And only bath once a week / How I’m nicer the first
time you meet me than the next / And I’m rapidly losing interest in sex / Yeah, I’m
rapidly losing interest in sex / What’s the point in making it over-emotional? / You can
do it the hard way / Or you can be a professional / Oh, oh / La na na na / Oh, oh / I’m a
professional / Oh, oh / La na na na / Oh, oh / Sleep on my darling / Sleep on my love /
Sleep on my darling / Sleep on my love / Sleep on my darling / Sleep on my love / Sleep on
my darling / Sleep on my love
