I Want to Be in the Mafia

[Verse 1]

I wonder if I would crack under fire

I wonder if I'm a rat

Love is being connected

I wanna feel like that

The crew and I will hang on the steps

Outside a chippy shop in Oldham

I'd make mistakes; they'd clean up the mess

We'll play Texas hold-em and talk about religion

It's a wonder how I try

So little in my life

I still could be insane

But I'd do it in style

[Pre-Chours 1]

No one would ever talk to me that way

Get the boss on the phone

Some jabroni’s in my face

He thinks he's the man

[Chorus 1]

I wanna be in the mafia

I wanna push everybody down, down, down

I wanna put a hit out on my brain

And live another day in the mafia

[Verse 2]

I met a guy at Belmont Psychiatric

Didn't like the look of his room

He told me he was taking mine

And I said, "Should I make your bed?

Do you tuck your sheets in?"

My mind is over that way

My soul is over there somewhere

I'm just in-between

Saying "what do you want from me?"

[Pre-Chrous 2]

I know I'll never be untouchable

But if I ever get pinched

I know a henchman inside

Will get to bust me out

[Chorus 2]

I wanna be in the mafia

I wanna push everybody down down down

I wanna put a hit out on my brain and say

"What do I look like, an asshole?"

I wanna be Ray Liotta

And live another day in the mafia

[Outro]

And in the evening I'd take off my sweatpants

Adjust my chain and put on some other sweatpants

Look at my pinkie ring

This little thing

Means somebody loves me

I'm beginning to give up

There's nothing in my cup

I'm hoping it's a phase

I'm longing for the days

In the mafia
