I got a passport, officer
This time you ain't getting what you want
This time you're doing only what you must
This time you're doing only what you have
I got a passport, officer
This time you're doing only what you must
This time you're doing only what you have
What you have...
Where is your friend now, officer?
That sharp good-looking lieutenant
That got vacation 'cause he shot my friend
That got vacation 'cause he shot my friend
Where is your friend now, officer?
That sharp good-looking lieutenant
That got vacation 'cause he shot my friend
Shot my friend...
I got a passport, officer
This time you ain't getting what you want
This time you're doing only what you must
This time you ain't getting what you want
Where is your friend now, officer?
That sharp good-looking lieutenant
His wife got acne and his children cry
His children cry: Assassino...
