Mobster in Costume (July 2001)

You led me into a twisted world
I guess I should write a book about you.
But I wouldn’t know where to start.

In the park?
A stolen car?
Ten thousand dollars in your pocket.
We had ourselves one wild first time.

The buzz of adrenaline was as addictive as the heroin you peddled.
In two short days, I was hooked on you.

One crazy scheme after the next,
You were nonchalant about things
After all, it was ‘just business’

Mobster in costume
Hollywood makes films about you

You’re infamous in Antwerpen
The diamond merchants are you friend and villains.
They’ll hire you out
And then they’ll turn you in.

And man, you’ve got a vengeful streak.
You’d even up the score with style.
You could leave them quakin in their boots.

Mobster in costume
Hollywood makes films about you
Mobster in costume
Won’t forget the day I met you

You told me more than I should know.
At times, I had to flee the town for safety.
The best way they could get you was through me.

You wouldn’t stop your wild ways
Really couldn’t
Even if you tried.
There’s no escape once you’ve been inside.

Mobster in costume
Hollywood makes films about you
Mobster in costume
Won’t regret the day I left you
