Song title: Smash Mouth - Padrino

Edit By: 216.73.216.140

Life imitates the game of chess
You can be the rook or the pawn
But if you have the strategy thats best
You can be the king or in this case the don
Its easy to get knocked out of the game
Depending on which way you want to play
Youve got to have eyes on the back of your head
Now that we have that out of the way

Chorus:
Rev up the lincoln
And lets get to drinking some caffeino
Lets go to nicolletis
Cause he makes a mean spaghetti sauce
Im a connoisseur of the finer things in life
Ill talk any flick with al pacino
Im a man of respect and I prefer to be addressed as padrino

If youre the type that likes to spill the beans
You could be a stone in someones shoe
Youll receive a kiss on each cheek
And then youll know that pretty soon the stone will be removed
Everyone knows that crime doesnt pay
It doesnt pay the taxes away
Youve got to be slick if you dont want it to stick
Now that we have that out of the way

I know its not a wise thing to do
Writing funny songs about the mob
But if its all the same to you
I dont see it as a gang but a club
Where men sit like gentlemen
Plotting their events about
Things I shouldnt understand, comprehend or care
Like...oh, I dont know maybe I shouldnt go there
After all it is a family affair

Stay out of the papers
Dont get caught
Leave the singing to sinatra and always keep your big trap shut
Capice?

The underworld is like an undertow - if you dont respect it
It will surely bring you down - when you least expect it -
Hey expect it from all sides
Once youre in it its for life
Dont be famous be infamous and you will live to see another day
Be wise about with whom you discuss
Now that we have that out of the way
