Lyrics
:
Well take a look and listen to the things that I have said Could I really tell the truth with a rifle at my head I gunned down a president I have done a crime But now you've got to listen 'cos I'm running out of time It's not me that you're after It's not me that's gonna pay It's not me that is guilty It's a man from the C.I.A. Well I got put in jail because I got into a fight And while I was in prison I got beat up every night Well torture it was blackmail I was messed up with cocaine I even got to thinking but then I knew just who to blame It's not me that you're after It's not me that's gonna pay It's not me that is guilty It's a man at the C.I.A. So there I stood before him a revolver in my hand With one shot for the torture and a bullet for the man So now I'm UP FOR MURDER on a charge I can't deny Well there ain't no clues I'm bom to lose and no ones gonna ask me why It's not me that you're after It's not me that's gonna pay It's not me that is guilty It's a man at the C.I.A. It's not me that you're after It's not me that's gonna pay It's not me that is guilty It's a man at the C.I.A. C.I.A. C.I.A. The C.I.A.
