The Oldest Profession
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I believe what goes around will come right back around
I believe what comes around will knock you to the ground
Hey, DJ, play that record now
Hey, DJ, play it loud!
I thought you were the one, but I was mistaken
Guess I was wrong
That's the price I pay, hey
I thought you were the one
But it was all transaction
Guess I was wrong
It was just the oldest profession in the world
The oldest profession in the world
I believe a second chance is just a second chance to fail
I believe that everything is black beyond the pale
Hey, DJ, play that record now
Hey, DJ, play it loud!
I thought you were the one, but I was mistaken
Guess I was wrong
That's the price I pay, hey
I thought you were the one
But it was all transaction
Guess I was wrong
It was just the oldest profession in the world
The oldest profession in the world
The oldest profession in the world
I thought you were the one, but I was mistaken
Guess I was wrong
That's the price I pay, hey
I thought you were the one
But it was all transaction
Guess I was wrong
It was just the oldest profession in the world
