Текст песни Dishonorable Profession

This is a dishonorable profession Brought about by people who
think right First will take a kid And when he's earned a bit
We'll fleece him Push him on the stage Then push him to one side
This is a dishonorable profession Even thieves would treat their
own more kind And the man who gets his ten per cent Will go on
to become a President While you will just barely survive. Such
is a dishonorable profession where success however great is despised
Ana while you say that you are In it only for the music Managers
and agents view this with delight. Such is a dishonorable profession
Once you've passed the age of thirty-five Your career is as good
as up Though your songs might still be good enough The business
is saying bye bye. Sign on the dotted line And soon you'll he
in the big time Making a fortune for let's see The Management
and the record company [Solo] Such is a dishonorable profession
Once you've passed the age of thirty-five Your career is as good
as up Though your songs might still be good enough The busin
ess is saying bye bye.
