Friends In The Department

Friends in the department Well, I guess that must be nice To have support in your deployment To have your pick of the best supplies Don't have to turn nobody in to get ahead Friends can help with advancement Friends can help you grease some heel Or put a good word in at a gala Help you to cultivate your appeal But you must never turn your back on no one The opera box and the shadowed handgun You'll do fine, stay calm act right Chin up, eyes down, be seen in town Do well, don't break, don't make some dumb mistake Just breathe, make believe that it's give and take Don't make it so it's us or you We're not that close, we thought you knew Friends in the department Are always checking in on their crimes They like to verify their placement and to Boast about the price But you should never take advice from no one Better at a grave than well below one This whole time I told you why I'd leave you here when things got weird It's high time I got out The sky's about to rain All holy hell down onto this whole department It's out of order And they're checking papers at the border Friends in the department Well I guess that must be nice
