Party in the CIA

Album: Alpocalypse (2011)

  • I moved out to Langley recently
    With a plain and simple dream
    Wanna infiltrate some third-world place (woah)
    And topple their regime

    Those men in black with their matching suitcases
    Where everything's on a need-to-know basis
    Agents got that swagger
    Everyone's so cloak and dagger

    I'm feelin' nervous but I'm really kinda wishing
    For an undercover mission
    That's when the red alert came on the radio
    And I put my earpiece on
    Got my dark sunglasses on
    And I had my weapon drawn

    So I get my handcuffs
    My cyanide pills
    My classified dossier
    Tappin' the phones like yeah
    Shreddin' the files like yeah
    I memorized all the enemy spies
    I've got to neutralize today

    Yeah, it's a party in the CIA
    Yeah, it's a party in the CIA

    I've done a couple of crazy things
    That have almost gotten me dismissed
    Like terminate some head of state
    Who wasn't even on my list

    Burn that microfilm buddy, will you
    I'd tell you why but then I'd have to kill you
    You need a quickie confession?
    Well, start a water boarding session

    No hurry on this South American dictator
    I'll assassinate him later
    That's when he walked right in my laser sights
    And my silencer was on and my silencer was on
    And another target's gone

    Yeah, we've got our black ops all over the world
    From Kazakhstan to Bombay
    Payin' the bribes like yeah
    Pluggin' the leaks like yeah
    Interrogating the scum of the earth
    We'll break them by the break of day

    Yeah, it's a party in the CIA
    Yeah, it's a party in the CIA

    Need a country destabilized? (stabilize)
    Look no further, we're your guys (we're your guys)
    We've got snazzy suits and ties (suits and ties)
    And a better dental plan than the FBI's

    Better put your hands up and get in the van
    Or else you'll get blown away (blown away)
    Stagin' a coup like yeah (staging a coup like yeah)
    Brainwashin' moles like yeah
    We only torture the folks we don't like
    You're probably going to be okay (you're gonna be okay)

    Yeah, it's a party in the CIA
    Yeah, it's a party in the CIA Writer/s: Al Yankovic, Claude Kelly, Jessica Cornish, Lukasz Gottwald
