Blackmail - Michael Johnson

Came here to see you yesterday

But the maid said you weren’t home

So I came around today again

No, no, I didn’t want to phone

It’s rather a personal thing

You’ll see what I mean

Your husband might be glad to know

Your past has not been clean

Blackmail, it’s just a simple case of give and take

And it’s blackmail, anyone can make a small mistake

And it’s blackmail, it’s just another case of you give and I take

Oh what a lovely house you have

It must have cost you quite a sum

With all your maids, with all your maids

And household help to get your cleaning done

All you need are some photographs to hang upon the wall

I have some here for you to see, I’m sure you’ll buy them all

Blackmail, it’s just a simple case of give and take

And it’s blackmail, anyone can make a small mistake

And it’s blackmail, it’s just another case of you give and I take

Sorry for the trouble

I know you’ve things to do

Let’s keep it short and sweet

I’m sure we’ll meet again soon

Blackmail, it’s just a simple case of give and take

And it’s blackmail, anyone can make a small mistake

And it’s blackmail, it’s just another case of you give and I take

Blackmail, blackmail
