David D Mansell - Bobby Pascoe Lyrics

Bobby's a little dazzler
Doing well of late
Running guns and money
In a post colonial state
Rick's a little fixer
Closed a deal today
Oiled with blood and thunder
Amazed the price they'll pay
Amazed at the price they'll pay

So Sister Mercy what can I do do do
But remonstrate till my face turns blue
People say it has always been so
But I say no no no no no

Drugs and oil and armory
Mountain hard to climb
Hard to get a foothold
Bodies hard to find
Love for power and money
Takes a certain kind
They don't want you to find
They don't want you to find

International lawyers
Draw the paper tight
Looking through the loophole
To make it all look right
Platitude diplomacy
Perpetrator free
Contract Clause the trigger
Fuels the misery
Fuels the misery

So Sister Mercy what can I do do do
But remonstrate till my face turns blue
People say it has always been so
But I say no no no no no

Bankers they all finance
The god forsaken trade
When'll they be taken down
For the trouble that they've made
Chosen words not enough
Spin equates to bluff
Politician handshake
A dash upon the cuff

Drugs and oil and armory
Mountain hard to climb
Hard to get a foothold
Bodies hard to find
Love for power and money
Takes a certain kind
When they don't want you to find
