Dishonorable Profession — текст песни (Gilbert O`sullivan)

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.
