歌词
[Verse 1]
Descending the cold steps of the institution for the politically insane
Never to be seen again
Saying farewell to daylight
From henceforth I shall rot in a stinking bed of wet straw
[Verse 2]
Right for the ashes of life
I learned to behave
What to believe
What not to say
From cradle to grave
Ah-ah-ah
Like a good little slave
Sucking my milk from the venomous tit of the state
It's clearly designed to suppress every thought of escape
Ah-ah-ah
I surrender to fate
[Verse 3]
No pity
No pity
Don’t want no pity for me in this filthy cell
I’ll see you in hell
See you in hell
[Verse 4]
Frozen in time I’m a specimen pinned to my throne
With an army of butterflies pilloried, placid, and prone
Ah-ah-ah
We we’re never alone
[Verse 5]
No pity
No pity
Don’t want no pity for me in this filthy cell
I’ll see you in hell
[Verse 6]
After centuries of living with nothing but my convictions
Broken fingers clawing through the walls of my incarceration
Escaping the clutches of eternal damnation
I was justified
