Gangsters

Why must you record my phone calls? Are you planning a bootleg LP? Said you've been threatened by gangsters Now it's you, that's threatening me Can't fight corruption with con tricks They use the law to commit crime And I dread, dread to think what the future will bring When we're living in gangster time Don't call me scar face Can't interrupt while I'm talking Or they'll confiscate all your guitars and catch 22 says if I sing the truth they won't make me an overnight star Don't offer us legal protection They use the law to commit crime I dread to think what the future will bring When we're living in gangster time Bernie Rhodes knows Don't Argue
