Consultants With Swing
Text: Wilmer T / Mark Knopfler
You feel a shiver in your heart and you think you´re in the dark, but in time
north of the river you stop, and you save everything
The Telecans can fix it, double your time
You feel alright when you hear their music ring
Well, now you step inside and you see, oh so many faces
Come on in out of the dark to break your problems down
Competition from other places
but come to us, listen to the Teleca-sound
Way on up north, way on up north little London town
You check out hacker George, he knows all the tricks
Mind he´s strictly legitime, he doesn't want to break any laws
This and his master `gree can get you all, and you can afford
Then we turn on all your lights to do our thing
And Harry doesn´t mind if he doesn´t make the scene
he´s got a daytime job, he´s doing alright
He can draw the circuits for you, just like anything
Shipping it out by friday night
We´re consultants, we´re consultants with swing
A crowd of young boys, they´re fooling around in the corner
Sharp and dressed in their best baggies, they know a platforms soul
They don't give a damn about other crappy companies, and
those ain't what they call rock´n roll
Cause they're consultants, yeah these consultants play their role
And then the man, he steps right up to the telephone
and says at last, just as your time bell rings
Got what you wanted, now it´s time to go home
And he has made it fast, then he adds one last thing
We´re consultants, we are the consultants with swing
