Lyrics
The Punishment
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.
What's wrong with you?
Protecting criminals from death
You take another life
You deserve to die like all the rest
Revenge is lost on death row they laugh at us
The sentence means nothing
violence goes unpunished again
Justice will be done, I'll see to it
You will die, make no mistake of it
The Punishment fits the crime
The solution is right in front of your face
Any method works
Electrocute, hang, or inject
Justice will be done, I'll see to it
You will die, make no mistake of it
The Punishment fits the crime
