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 to 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 his 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
