The Gestapo (German pronunciation: [ɡeˈstaːpo, ɡəˈʃtaːpo]), abbreviation of Geheime Staatspolizei, or the Secret State Police was the official secret police of Nazi Germany and German-occupied Europe.
The force was created by Hermann Göring in 1933 by combining the executive and the judicial branches into one power. Beginning on 20 April 1934, it was under the administration of SS national leader Heinrich Himmler, who in 1936 was appointed Chief of German Police (Chef der Deutschen Polizei) by Hitler. In 1936, Himmler made it a suboffice of the Sicherheitspolizei (SiPo) ("Security Police"). Then from 27 September 1939 forward, it was administered by the Reichssicherheitshauptamt (RSHA) ("Reich Main Security Office") and was considered a sister organization of the Sicherheitsdienst (SD) ("Security Service").
As part of the deal in which Adolf Hitler became Chancellor of Germany, Hermann Göring —future commander of the Luftwaffe and the number-two-man in the Nazi Party—was named Interior Minister of Prussia. This gave Göring command of the largest police force in Germany. Soon afterward, Göring detached the political and intelligence sections from the police and filled their ranks with Nazis. On 26 April 1933, Göring merged the two units as the Geheime Staatspolizei, which was abbreviated for a franking stamp and became known as the Gestapo. He originally wanted to name it the Secret Police Office (German: Geheimes Polizeiamt), but discovered the German initials "GPA" looked and sounded too much like those of the Russian GPU.

I was living in the belly of a shark
Seen what he was eating all the time
She pulled me out with her pirate sense of duty oh
she said you ve been living off the dark end blend
now its time to come out my friend, you thought
oh I ll never see the light but you were wrong
you just became the light
chorus: cause I am a ghost boy I don t
scare and I don t get no bellyaches
and I ll be eating sparrows
sitting on top of a tree
and as the days go by won t
you show me where to get them bellyaches
or I ll be eating marrow
straight from the bone
those days I had a coronary taste
falling from the tip of my tongue
she was looking for a little fun
and me I was the only one oh she said:
Big sewers filled with little kids,
west side story be the story of bids that go
high till they brake the sky.
They make bible stones seem old
Now all that can save me
Is my own rabies
So I bite my own self
and I quiet down like stealth again
All that can save me
is my own rabies
so I bite my own self
and I quiet down like stealth bombers
chorus: cause I am a ghost boy I don t
scare and I don t get no belly aches
and I ll be eating sparrows
sitting on top of a tree
and as the days go by won t
you show me where to get them bellyaches
or I ll be here like pharaohs
