Stool Pigeon

Lyrics

[Chorus] There's a gentleman that's going round Turning the joint upside down Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha He's an old ex-con that's been away Now he's back, no one's safe Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha [Verse 1] "If you wanna squeal" said the FBI "We can make a deal, make it worth your while" So he told it all and in return He got a credit card and a Thunderbird And the maximum security Even after plastic surgery "So go on and squeal" said the FBI "We can make a deal, make it worth your while" [Chorus] There's a gentleman that's going round Turning the joint upside down Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha He's an old ex-con that's been away Now he's back, no one's safe Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha [Verse 2] After all the talk then they wired him And he took a walk with his crooked friends And they joked about the good old days And he recorded it on a reel of tape He caught the mug who did in the forgery And the babe in charge of larceny So the FBI they rewarded him Because they like a guy who will stab a friend [Chorus] There's a gentleman that's going round Turning the joint upside down Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha He's an old ex-con that's been away Now he's back, no one's safe Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha [Chorus] There's a gentleman that's going round Turning the joint upside down Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha He's an old ex-con that's been away Now he's back, no one's safe Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha [Verse 3] "If you wanna squeal" said the FBI "We can make a deal, make it worth your while" So he told it all and in return He got a credit card and a Thunderbird He got a spanking new identity And a condo down in Miami He bought a plane, a boat and jewellery But he couldn't buy any company [Outro] There's a gentleman that's going round Turning the joint upside down Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha He's an old ex-con that's been away Now he's back, no one's safe Stool Pigeon, ha-cha-cha-cha
