Life imitates the game of chess  You can be the rook or the pawn  If you have the strategy that's best  You can be the king or in this case the don  It's easy to get knocked out of the game  Depending on which way you want to play  You've got to have eyes in the back of your head  Now that we have that out of the way     [Chorus:]  Rev up the Lincoln  And lets get to drinking some caffeino  Lets go to nicolettis  Cause he makes a mean spaghetti sauce  I'm a connoisseur of the finer things in life  I'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 beans  You could be a stone in someone's shoe  You'll receive a kiss on each cheek  Then you'll know that pretty soon the stone will be removed  Everyone knows that crime does not pay  It doesn't pay the taxes anyway  You'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 do  Writing funny songs about the mob  But if it's all the same to you  I don't see it as a gang but a club  Where men sit like gentlemen  Plotting their events about  Things I shouldn't understand comprehend or care  Like...oh, I don't know maybe I shouldn't go there  After all it is a family affair     Stay out of the papers  Don't get caught  Leave the singing to Sinatra and always keep your big trap shut  Capice?     The underworld is like an undertow - if you don't respect it  It will surely bring you down - when you least expect -  Hey expect it from all sides  Once you're in it it's for life  Don't be famous be infamous and you will live to see another day  Be wise about with whom you discuss   Now that we have that out of the way     [Repeat Chorus]
