Don't Crash The Ambulance Lyrics

Artist: Mark Knopfler
Album: Shangri-La

donâ‚¬â„¢t often open up this floor
since i handed in my gun
what all these keys are for
now my tour of dutyâ‚¬â„¢s done
you got to know the switches
now you got your turn
watch and learn, junior
watch and learn

now you will get your
trouble spots
hereâ‚¬â„¢s one from
down voodoo way
bragged he had me
by the you-know-whats
very funny, you donâ‚¬â„¢t say
the big enchilada
stealing elections
had to go down there
trash collection
got his cojones
on my desk in there
made into a souvenir
set of cufflinks, nice pair
the rest of himâ‚¬â„¢s
someplace up here
sometimes you got to
put a shoulder to the door
not so fast, junior
listen to your pa
here, son
iâ‚¬â„¢m handing over to you
donâ‚¬â„¢t crash the ambulance
whatever you do

what we have hereâ‚¬â„¢s
a dung hole place
thought it was fly shit
on the map
fat bastard, ugly face
and the personal crap
you canâ‚¬â„¢t move the barriers
you canâ‚¬â„¢t mess with oil and gas
had to go down there
stick a couple
aircraft carriers
in his ass
fancy dress
medals chest
itâ‚¬â„¢s all in here
for all the gigs
gas mask
bullet-proof vest
all the usual rigs
thereâ‚¬â„¢ll be things they missed
they didnâ‚¬â„¢t mention
youâ‚¬â„¢ve even
got a whistle in there
for attracting attention

well, i think youâ‚¬â„¢re gonna
be okay, son
youâ‚¬â„¢ve had the tour, i guess
these two buttons
by the way
this one i hope
you never press
some holy fool, just watch
whoâ‚¬â„¢s not like you or me
that oneâ‚¬â„¢s the whole
shooting match
right there
itâ‚¬â„¢s the whole shitaree
we donâ‚¬â„¢t forget
who put us here, jack
thatâ‚¬â„¢s page one
we talk soft
but carry a big stick
and pack the biggest gun
we donâ‚¬â„¢t like accidents
major or minor
you donâ‚¬â„¢t want yourself
an incident
donâ‚¬â„¢t ever invade china

here, son
iâ‚¬â„¢m handing over to you
donâ‚¬â„¢t crash the ambulance
here, son
iâ‚¬â„¢m handing over to you
donâ‚¬â„¢t crash the ambulance
whatever you do
