Lyrics
Death Row
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.
As the day breaks through the window
and the defiant bars stand strong
All is quiet on the Death Row
we all know it won't be long
The wardens keep us waiting
They torment us as long as they dare
We all wonder who is the next one
to be dragged down to the chair
We're on the Death Row
We're paying for our crimes
We're on the Death Row
They're gonna blow our minds
We're on the Death Row
It makes me sick sometimes
Society won't tolerate me
That's why I'm sitting in a prison cell
'cause I done something real bad
But I wish they'd come and get me
'cause the suspense just drives me mad
And I'm thinking whilst I'm waiting
'Shit, I hope they don't shave my hair
'Cause I wanna see it stand up straight
when they strap me to that chair'
Then I hear footsteps outside
and the man in black walks in
All is quiet on the Death Row
as the light bulbs all glow dim
