Headline Hustler Lyrics

I got me a job on the local paper

Everybody there thinks I'm nice

But they'd better look twice

'Cos it isn't me

I wanna be 

Headline hustler

Scandal maker

Headline hustler

Money taker 

You keep writing me letters

But I haven't got time

I'm busy looking at photographs

But they'd better not be from the BBC

You're gonna hear from me 

Headline hustler

Scandal maker

Headline hustler

Money taker 

Better not turn around

I'll stab you in the back

And you don't know what I'm hiding

Under my plastic mac, under my plastic mac 

I got a very good friend in the CIA

And he says that he never takes bribes

But he's telling lies

'Cos he's into me

He knows I wanna be 

Headline hustler

Scandal maker

Headline hustler

Money taker 

If your brother's wearing dresses

And your neighbour's swapped his wife

Well, I'm gonna make the headlines

With your private life

With your other wife 

Headline hustler

Scandal maker

Headline hustler

Money taker

Headline hustler

Scandal maker

Headline hustler

Money taker
