Nixon

And I got friends in high places

Cause I'm a liar, a criminally bastard man
I get what I want, and I steal when I can't
I climbed my way up, these scrapes and bruises
Are glory, the angels singing"Hallelujah"
As I stand at the top, I will never descend
Under God's protection, I'm heavensent
All my enemies are here, riverside hotel
Bust this god dam open, let em drown

I got friends in high places
Friends in high places

Five hundred thousand ain't nothing to lose
To hear em"Shhh", distract 'em with a few interviews
I never did any wrong, I'll never do it again
I mean what I say, I didn't say what I meant
And the press is the enemy, don't ever forget
You're running round and round in circles hunting me like a witch
And if Bernstein and Wood write about me again
Well, that's two young men face down in a ditch

In their places
Friends in high places

Well, I'm a liar, a king in a gaggle of pawns
Sometimes you gotta sacrifice to get what you want
I've been called many things, even by my friends
The list grows longer every new sentence
And every smart man has to know when to run
The better part of bravery is discretion
I'll be screaming my innocence til my deathbed
Cause I can make em forgive, but I can't make em forget

I got friends in high places
Friends in high places

And you're never gonna catch me now
No no!

People have gotta know whether or not their president is a crook
Well I'm not a crook
He said"You're not gonna be a dictator, are you?"
I said"No, no, no, other than day one"
I did not have sexual relations with that woman
Ms. Lewinsky (Friends in high places)
I call upon all nations to do everything they can
To stop these terrorist killers

Now watch this drive
