Godfather IV

Make me an offer I can't refuse
Have some respect for the clan of Blues
When I am talking the party bull
Fill up my mouth with cotton wool

Yes, fill up my mouth with cotton wool
When you see voters you wish me to pull
No need to waste ammunition: instead,
Put the head of a dead horse in Gordon's bed

Put the head of a dead horse in Gordon's bed
Let him see how you tell that a swell's well-bred
Show him casino, show him what we know:
That we need a new leader, like Al Pacino

Yes, we need a new leader, like Al Pacino
A man whose political blood is like vino
A man who wrote howlers for Michael Howard
A man with cojones, who is never a coward

I'm a man with cojones, and never a coward
And I'm trim and I'm fragrant and so freshly showered
And I'm never a spiv and I'm never reptilian
But maybe, yes maybe, a little Sicilian

Yes maybe I am just a little Sicilian
With the hoods who can launder a billion billion
And the class that eluded both Gordon and Tony
Because I am the man, I am Dave Corleone

Yes I am the man who is Dave Corleone
And Don Ashcroft, my friends, is a very close crony
Take out your pistols from well-hidden holsters
And pepper the hell out of pundits and pollsters

Yes pepper the hell out of pundits and pollsters
Who say we won't win over youngsters and oldsters
Press me my suits, and go polish my shoes
And make me an offer I cannot refuse
