Stool Pigeon <br />August Darnell <br /><br />Chorus: <br />There's a gentleman that's going 'round, <br />Turnin' the joint upside-down. <br />Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja. <br />He's an old ex-con that's been away, <br />Now he's back, no-one's safe. <br />Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja. <br /><br />"If you wanna squeal", said the F.B.I., <br />"We can make a deal, make it worth your while". <br />So he told them all and in return, <br />He got a credit card and a Thunderbird. <br />And the maximum security, even after plastic surgery. <br />"So, go on and squeal", said the F.B.I., <br />"We can make a deal, make it worth your while". <br /><br />(Chorus) <br /><br />After all the talk, then they wired him, <br />And he took a walk with his crooked friends. <br />And they joked about the good old days, <br />And he recorded it on a reel of tape. <br />He caught the mug who did the forgery, <br />And the babe in charge of larceny. <br />So the F.B.I., they rewarded him, <br />'Cause they like a guy who will stab a friend. <br /><br />(Chorus) <br />(Chorus) <br /><br />"If you wanna squeal", said the F.B.I., <br />"We can make a deal, make it worth your while". <br />So he told them all and in return, <br />He got a credit card and a Thunderbird. <br />He got a spankin' new identity, <br />And a condo' down in Miami. <br />He bought a plane, a boat and jewellery, <br />But he couldn't buy any company.
