No Doubt
"Gangsters"

(originally recorded by the Specials)
performed live by No Doubt

Why must you record my phone calls
Are you planning a bootleg LP
You said you've been threatened by gangsters 
Now it's you that's threatening me 

Can't fight corruption with con tricks. 
The youth, they love to commit crime
I dread, dread to think what the future will bring 
When we're living in gangster times
Don't call me skaface...

Don't interrupt while I'm talking
Or they'll confiscate all your guitars 
A catch-22 says if I sing a tune 
They will make me an overnight star

Don't offer a single protection 
The youth, they love to commit crime
I dread to think what the future will bring
