Songtexte: Kid Creole And The Coconuts. Stool Pigeon.

There's a gentleman that's going round

Turning the joint upside down

Stool Pigeon - ha-cha-cha-cha

He's an old ex-con that's been away

Now he's back, no one's safe

Stool Pigeon - ha-cha-cha-cha



If you wanna squeal, said the FBI

We can make a deal, make it worth your while

So he told it all and in return

He got a credit card and a Thunderbird

And the maximum security

Even after plastic surgery

So go on and squeal, said the FBI

We can make a deal, make it worth your while



There's a gentleman that's going round

Turning the joint upside down

Stool Pigeon - ha-cha-cha-cha

He's an old ex-con that's been away

Now he's back, no one's safe

Stool Pigeon - ha-cha-cha-cha



After all the talk then they wired him

And he took a walk with his crooked friends

And they joked about the good old days

And he recorded it on a reel of tape

He caught the mug who did in the forgery

And the babe in charge of larceny

So the FBI they rewarded him

Because they like a guy who will stab a friend



There's a gentleman that's going round

Turning the joint upside down

Stool Pigeon - ha-cha-cha-cha

He's an old ex-con that's been away

Now he's back, no one's safe

Stool Pigeon - ha-cha-cha-cha



There's a gentleman that's going round ....



If you wanna squeal, said the FBI

We can make a deal, make it worth your while

So he told it all and in return

He got a credit card and a Thunderbird

He got a spanking new identity

And a condo down in Miami

He bought a plane, a boat and jewelry

But he couldn't buy any company



There's a gentleman that's going round ....

There's a gentleman that's going round ....
