A Letter From Death Row |
Sitting here in my cell writing a letter |
Thanking all the people who made my living conditions better |
And thanks to the justice system |
I’m making a million |
My lawyer got me a book deal |
Now I’m making a killing just from making a killing |
I got an agent for the publicity |
An accountant to count my royalties |
The talk shows want me, sorry I can’t go |
I’m stuck here on death row |
You call me Hannibal Lechter, if I was smarter |
If I was Charlie Manson you’d make me a martyr wouldn’t ya |
You’d call me a handsome man if I was Bundy |
But if I looked like John Wayne Gasey you’d just say I’m funny, not ha ha funny |
Chorus: |
Tried to act my career just flopped |
Killed my neighbor, got on Cops |
Problem is, I only made one show now |
I’m stuck here on death row |
The poor victim’s families never make a dime |
Networks say I’m not prime time |
All my cell mates on my cell block |
Say I’m the hottest topic at the coffee shops |
Waitress cries, «God how they should free me» |
Send me her love letters, says someday she’d really love to meet me |
Tells her customers people should forgive me for the things I do |
I wonder if I kill her would her family forgive me too? |
Chorus |
Thanks for the attention and the publicity |
The taxpayer’s dollars that you spend on me |
Thanks for the good meal, dry bed, and these warm clothes |
I’m alive and well on death row |
