Dodgy Mate |
| System of our social ills |
| You’re using crime to pay your bills |
| Shifty as a politician |
| Illegal profit is your mission |
| I’ve known you since we both were ten |
| But you were only small fry then |
| Once I laughed you off as funny |
| But now I’m broke I need fast money |
| My dodgy mate — he put me up to this |
| He had a lot of cash he knew I couldn’t resist |
| And now my dodgy mate is gonna put me into jail |
| There’s nothing new, there’s no surprises |
| In your range of enterprises |
| You’ve got your brains, you’ve got your muscle |
| Working on your next big hustle |
| I talked my way in on a job |
| Some old guys place we’re gonna rob |
| But we’ll need more assistance |
| To get the dough without resistance |
| (I was once warned of criminal behaviour) |
| (Go too far and there’s no on who can save ya) |
| My dodgy mate — he put me up to this |
| He had a lot of cash he knew I couldn’t resist |
| And now my dodgy mate is gonna put me into jail |
| Your mates have rocked up from Traralgon |
| In their rusty XA Falcon |
| Stopped by the cops the car is rusted |
| A routine check 'oh shit we’re busted' |
| I never made cent from crime |
| But now I’m locked up doin' time |
| You did your job you should have waited |
| You and your mates incarcerated |
| (You have the right to remain silent) |
| (Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law) |
| My dodgy mate — he put me up to this |
| He had a lot of cash he knew I couldn’t resist |
| And now my dodgy mate is gonna put me into jail (x2) |
