Never gonna go back to the rat   Play another mafia show again   For a man who's had more feet kicked in his face than I can begin to count      And if you see me sitting around   Thinking the same old thoughts over and over again   Or going back to old ways I've long ago abandoned   Please, tell me   Never go back      There might come a time when things between us get   Just a little bit too weird   We'll move to different cities for a temporary vacation   But it's just as you feared   Never go back      If you see me sitting around   Thinking the same old thoughts over and over again   Or going back to old ways I've long ago abandoned,   Please, tell me   Never go back
