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
