Area 7 - Dodgy Mate Lyrics
System of our social illsYou're using crime to pay your billsShifty as a politicianIllegal profit is your missionI've known you since we both were tenBut you were only small fry thenOnce I laughed you off as funnyBut now I'm broke I need fast moneyMy dodgy mate - he put me up to thisHe had a lot of cash he knew I couldn't resistAnd now my dodgy mate is gonna put me into jailThere's nothing new, there's no surprisesIn your range of enterprisesYou've got your brains, you've got your muscleWorking on your next big hustleI talked my way in on a jobSome old guys place we're gonna robBut we'll need more assistanceTo get the dough without resistance(I was once warned of criminal behaviour)(Go too far and there's no on who can save ya)My dodgy mate - he put me up to thisHe had a lot of cash he knew I couldn't resistAnd now my dodgy mate is gonna put me into jailYour mates have rocked up from TraralgonIn their rusty XA FalconStopped by the cops the car is rustedA routine check 'oh shit we're busted'I never made cent from crimeBut now I'm locked up doin' timeYou did your job you should have waitedYou and your mates incarcerated(You have the right to remain silent)(Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law)My dodgy mate - he put me up to thisHe had a lot of cash he knew I couldn't resistAnd now my dodgy mate is gonna put me into jail (x2)
