Not Personal
The Interrupters Lyrics

Cut throat boss man
A ruthless and aggressive leader who will do whatever it takes to get what they want.

Cold as ice
Completely unemotional and devoid of empathy, caring only about their own goals.

Killer shark in a suit and
A very dangerous and cunning person who appears to be respectable and law-abiding.

The water's just right
The perfect opportunity or situation for the boss man to strike and further their goals.

Switchblade, shotgun
Weapons of choice for gangsters who are willing to resort to violence to achieve their aims.

Baseball bat
Another tool of violence favored by gangsters who aren't afraid to get their hands dirty.

If it gets the job done
The only concern is achieving the desired outcome, regardless of the means used to get there.

Gangsters know that
People who engage in criminal activity are fully aware of the nature of their actions and the risks they entail.

It's business, not personal
The boss man and the gangsters view their actions as purely pragmatic and not based on emotion, sentiment or personal grudges.

They heard knock knock
The authorities have arrived or are about to arrive.

Knock knock "come outside"
The police are ordering the boss man or the gangsters to leave the building or confront them directly.

We have your place surrounded
The police have stationed officers around the building or area where the boss man and the gangsters are located.

Now there's nowhere to hide
The police have effectively eliminated all possible escape routes.

We'll drag you out by your feet
The police are willing to use force to apprehend and arrest the boss man or the gangsters.

That's alive or dead
The police are prepared to use lethal force if necessary to apprehend or stop the boss man or the gangsters.

Officer said
The authority figure giving the orders is maintaining a calm and professional demeanor.

Crack goes the gavel now the court's
The judge has passed sentence and the court proceedings are coming to a close.

In session
The court is currently in operation with witnesses, lawyers, and other personnel present.

No rat in the room
There is no snitch or informant present who might betray the gangsters or the boss man.

So there's no confession
Without any evidence or testimony, it is difficult for the authorities to secure a conviction.

Omertà is the law and the most respected
The criminal code of silence is strictly enforced within the gang and those who break it are subject to severe consequences.

If it gets the job done, you'll be protected
The gangsters will support each other as long as they remain loyal and continue to follow the rules of the gang.
