The Ballad of Scarface

Lyrics

Do you know Tony Montana
 Rode a boat here from Havana
 Scar from eating pussy lines his face
 Finds a day job washing dishes
 Hates his life, he only wishes
 Some day in this world to find his place
 And he has a scheme
 For his own drug regime
 Dream, Scarface, dream
 Hired by the gangster Omar
 He climbs the ranks, he's getting so far
 Selling guns and drugs out in the streets
 Soon he works for Frank, the main boss
 Doing hits and dodging chainsaws
 Getting rich and living life so sweet
 But he craves romance
 In his disco pants
 Dance, Scarface, dance
 See, Tony wants to rule the world
 So he kills Frank and steals his girl
 She'll give him the son he's never had
 Alas, her womb is so polluted
 From the powder she has tooted
 There'll be no son and that makes Tony sad
 As he looks to the sky
 Hear his plaintive cry
 Fly, pelican, fly
 Now he starts to get too high
 On his own supply
 Thinking he's the only game in town
 And his enemies decide
 On a plot of regicide
 It's time for the king to lose his crown
 Scarface must go down
 Oh, Tony's killers soon surround him
 Sensing death has finally found him
 He aims his gun, prepared to do his part
 And as he shouts "It's not the end,
 say hello to my little friend!"
 Assassins' bullets pierce his fragile heart
 It's a tragic goodbye
 He had flown so high
 Cuban butterfly
 Die, Scarface, die
