Padrino Life imitates the game of chessYou can be the rook or the pawnIf you have the strategy that’s bestYou can be the king or in this case the donIt’s easy to get knocked out of the gameDepending on which way you want to playYou’ve got to have eyes in the back of your head
Now that we have that out of the way
Chorus:Rev up the LincolnAnd lets get to drinking some caffeinoLets go to nicolettisCause he makes a mean spaghetti sauceI’m a connoisseur of the finer things in lifeI’ll take any flick with al pacino
I’m a man of respect and I prefer to be addressed as padrino
If you’re the type that likes to spill the beansYou could be a stone in someone’s shoeYou’ll receive a kiss on each cheekThen you’ll know that pretty soon the stone will be removedEveryone knows that crime does not payIt doesn’t pay the taxes anywayYou’ve got to be slick if you don’t want it to stick
Now that we have that out of the way
Repeat Chorus
I know it’s not a wise thing to doWriting funny songs about the mobBut if it’s all the same to youI don’t see it as a gang but a clubWhere men sit like gentlemenPlotting their events aboutThings I shouldn’t understand comprehend or careLike…oh, I don’t know maybe I shouldn’t go there
After all it is a family affair
Stay out of the papersDon’t get caughtLeave the singing to Sinatra and always keep your big trap shut
Capice?
The underworld is like an undertow – if you don’t respect itIt will surely bring you down – when you least expect -Hey expect it from all sidesOnce you’re in it it’s for lifeDon’t be famous be infamous and you will live to see another dayBe wise about with whom you discuss
Now that we have that out of the way
Repeat Chorus
