Dirty Laundry Songtext
von Eagles

I make my living off the evening news
Just give me something-something I can use
People love it when you lose
They love dirty laundry

Well, I could′a been an actor, but I wound up here
I just have to look good, I don't have to be clear
Come and whisper in my ear
Give us dirty laundry

Kick ′em when they're up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick ′em when they're up
Kick ′em when they're down
Kick ′em when they're up
Kick ′em when they're down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick ′em all around


We got the bubble-headed, bleach blonde
Who comes on at five
She can tell you 'bout the plane crash
With a gleam in her eye
It′s interesting when people die
Give us dirty laundry

Can we film the operation?
Is the head dead yet?
You know, the boys in the newsroom
Got a running bet
Get the widow on the set!
We need dirty laundry

You don't really want to find out what′s going on
You don't really want to know just how far it′s gone
Just leave well enough alone
Eat your dirty laundry

Kick 'em when they're up
Kick ′em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick ′em when they′re stiff
Kick 'em all around


Kick ′em when they're up
Kick ′em when they're down
Kick ′em when they're up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick ′em when they're up
Kick ′em when they're down
Kick ′em when they're stiff
Kick ′em all around

Dirty little secrets
Dirty little lies
We got our dirty little fingers in everybody's pie
We love to cut you down to size
We love dirty laundry

We can do the innuendo
We can dance and sing
When it's said and done we haven′t told you a thing
Cuz′ we all know that crap is king
Give us dirty laundry!

Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick ′em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick ′em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick ′em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick ′em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they're down
Kick ′em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
Kick 'em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they're up
Kick ′em when they′re down
Kick 'em when they′re up
