so you've just done the crime
the crime of a lifetime
you've been reported
the cops got it sorted
they take you to jail
where you get no mail
you say your see ya's
and wait thirty long years
your put with a dude
who is evenly rude
after three decades
your rebellion fades
you've done the crime
you've paid the time
jail is done
now have some fun!
