Biting Elbows - Angleton

I do believe that when I got betrayed It was part of the trade It was a little too much When my story got going I was breathing in the breeze Keeping the commies down in Italy with ease Some men never have a doubt About what their side on And how much they would sacrifice When the guns are drawn I’m talking about me Talking about me Talking about me Angleton They said, you’re gonna work in intelligence They said, you’re gonna make it big They said a lot of things So I’ll co-found the CIA My decisions can’t be swayed I’m the smartest motherfucker in the room But the room was empty Always so empty In it were only My Rolodex and me And I set up a network all over the world My biggest enemies, You’d think that I would know Fire Your head’s on fire My piano wire Is wrapping round your neck Philby, your nerve has killed me I got a steady dream of you In cement Philby was my good friend but Then again, he was one of them I realized that he was red Half a moment before he fled I still stand to defend my camp I see Philby’s face on a postage stamp Can’t plant a bomb in his car His new home is the USSR Failed to see the mole was close Right under my nose I was outsmarted by Brit Who took my life and spoiled it And Oh undeniably so It’s not easy to convey but it’s possible Fire Your head’s on fire My piano wire Is wrapping round your neck Philby, your nerve has killed me I got a steady dream of you In cement Blown up on an intellectual claymore Since that day I believe I’ve made way more I’ve kept my job but not my form, my form is full of Fire My head’s on fire No piano wire Will ever touch his neck Philby, I wish you killed me Instead of you did It’s far worse than cement Fire My head’s on fire No piano wire Will ever touch his neck Philby, I wish you killed me Instead of you did It’s far worse than cement
