it may be the refuge of the scoundrel
but that doesn't make it any less prevalent
the easy way out would be to move back home
but the easy way demeans the cause you represent

they've got your number
but they're too scared to make the call
they've got your number
but a move on you is a move against us all

let's extradite a man who made us millions
let's extradite a man who made us peace
let's extradite a man of revolutionary opinions
let's sacrifice the law for political release

they've got your number
but they're too scared to make the call
they've got your number
but a move on you is a move against us all

the government couldn't give you just want you asked for
cause what's yours is theirs and what's theirs is too good for you
and for you to be deported would be a disaster
but with the good lord on their side there's little else you could possibly do

they've got your number
