So he told them all and in return
After all the talk, then they wired him
Turnin' the joint upside-down, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja
Now he's back, no one's safe, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja
He got a credit card and a Thunderbird
Now he's back, no one's safe, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja
'Cause they like a guy who will stab a friend
“We can make a deal, make it worth your while”
Now he's back, no one's safe, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja
“We can make a deal, make it worth your while”
So he told them all and in return
“We can make a deal, make it worth your while”
He's an old ex-con that's been away
And a condo' down in Miami
So the F.B.I., they rewarded him
Now he's back, no one's safe, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja
Now he's back, no one's safe, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja
But he couldn't buy any company
And he recorded it on a reel of tape
“If you wanna squeal”, said the F.B.I.
He got a credit card and a Thunderbird
And he took a walk with his crooked friends
He's an old ex-con that's been away
“If you wanna squeal”, said the F.B.I.
Turnin' the joint upside down, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja
Even after plastic surgery
He's an old ex-con that's been away
There's a gentleman that's going 'round
He's an old ex-con that's been away
“So, go on and squeal”, said the F.B.I.
There's a gentleman that's going 'round
There's a gentleman that's going 'round
And the babe in charge of larceny
There's a gentleman that's going 'round
And they joked about the good old days
Turnin' the joint upside down, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja
There's a gentleman that's going 'round
He's an old ex-con that's been away
And the maximum security
He caught the mug who did the forgery
Turnin' the joint upside down, Stool Pigeon, ha tja tja tja
He got a spankin' new identity
He bought a plane, a boat and jewelery
