Ballad Of Hugo Chavez
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hey, hey hey!
Hey, hey HEY!
It was a bad idea to give me this kind of time
When they said, "You're gonna be in solitary confinement"
And while the other inmates are outside lifting bar bells
I'm in an eight by ten, prison cell
But in there I'm denied of sun! (Hey hey HEY!)
Denied of sun! (Hey hey HEY!)
Denied of sun! (Hey hey HEY!)
Denied of sun!
New state officials are outside running around
And they're telling the public that I need to be put down
And Washington's saying emphatically
That I wasn't doing things democratically
But in there I'm denied of sun! (Hey hey HEY!)
Denied of sun! (Hey hey HEY!)
Denied of sun! (Hey hey HEY!)
Denied of sun!
THE Suh-huh-hun!
It was a bad idea (It was a bad idea!)
To give me this kind of time (To give me this kind of time!)
It was a bad idea
