Mob Boss from Copacetica by Sophie Rose Anger

Never kept tabs on us
Just wanted to know you
You were a mob boss
Secretly made me owe you

I did you a favor once
You never saw me
Just saw a contractor
A slacking employee

Drove out to the woods
Pulled some Pauly deception
Don’t visit my grave
After you’ve buried the weapon

You really should pay someone
To talk about mother
Admitting she’s flawed
Doesn’t mean that you don’t love her

The boys club is strong but
You feel you can’t trust them
They need you to take care
Carry on the the customs

Well maybe they’re not your real friends
They just wanna be made men
you nod your head
You lay awake your bed
You’ve got nothing to say to them

Lonely at the top
You didn’t sign up for this burden
You’ll do a good job
You’ll make it clean, of this I’m certain

Never wore a wire but I get
You couldn’t trust just anyone
To hear the things you’ve done

Wanted to pass your test
To be named the winner
Was balancing books
Perfected that pasta dinner

The brown velour tracksuit
Hangs high in my closet
Unraveled the sleeves
I found your card in the pocket

You said I impressed you
I think that’s pathetic
I’ll swallow my words
Call it all copacetic

You go to the club
Have a panic attack
Step outside and you’ll see it
As the screen turns to black

Baby I’ve got some good friends
Never worry if they’re feds
Know how to have fun
Without shooting a gun
Giggling in our megabed

Lonely at the top
You didn’t sign up for this burden
You’ll do a good job
You’ll make it clean, of this I’m certain
Never wore a wire
But I get you couldn’t trust just anyone
To hear the thing you’ve done
