SOLITARY
Don’t wanna cause no trouble
don’t wanna make no trouble
just speak up when something’s wrong
it’ll be ten years in January
the warden didn’t like him any
and he has been in solitary far too long
it’s unusual
it is cruel
sometimes necessary - but mostly wrong
it’ll be ten years in January
Christ, what the hell good does that do anybody
and he has been in solitary far too long
solitary - solitary
it is as lonesome as it sounds
instrumental
you wanna know the truth
about a prisoner
just ask another prisoner.. and listen good
now most say “i belong in here”
but some say - “see that guy standin’ over there
well the truth is - we all think that he got screwed”
i don’t want your food
take back your food
i won’t eat until his hurtin’ is done
it’ll be ten years in January
the warden didn’t like him any
he’s been in solitary far too long
solitary - solitary
it is as lonesome as it sounds.
