1
All of the prisoners serving life sentences
2
Wait for the earth to suddenly shake
3
For the walls to somehow suddenly come crumbling, tumbling and
4
For the bars to somehow magically break
5
Aw, There's nothing wrong with them
6
That a thousand bucks can't fix
7
That a thousand arms can't hold down
8
In the ground they're tattooing the stones with
9
Cusses like cavemen - your momma was here
10
But they want to run through the air with no barriers or obstacles
11
Gunmen or guard dogs or priests
12
And to rise from the mud and start over and over
13
With the people all dead.
14
If Hans Christian Andersen could've had his way with me
15
Then none of this s**t would have ever gone down
16
In my cell I'm tattooing myself with
17
Mermaids and swallows and though I do swallow
18
My mama thinks I'm grown but I'm really just little
19
And someday I will remember
20
Someday I will remember
21
Someday I will remember
