The Lyrics

This is based on a true story (though technically the true story would have been a lettings agent woman, but that didn't scan)
There's a man who leads a life that's meaner
Than any rat or weasel or hyaena
At contract's end he tries
To take your dough with lies
Odds are you won't get back your deposit

Lettings Agent Man
Lettings Agent Man
You never called that plumber, or paid for a lick of paint

Beware his dirty tricks, don't let him win
By saying things were new when you moved in
Your words may get uncouth
If you don't have the proof
Odds are he'll hold on to your deposit

Lettings Agent Man
Lettings Agent Man
You never called that plumber, or paid for a lick of paint

He's a man who'll never show repentance
To the folk he's wronged: landlords or tenants
I'll only say this once
They're all such .. nasty people
Odds are he's made off with your deposit

Lettings Agent Man
Lettings Agent Man
You never called that plumber, or paid for a lick of paint

Ha! Nice, Phil, but maybe it's better if you *don't* Gimme Shelter!

Not sure why they call it a deposit when you don't get it back.
