General penitentiary

Down in the dump cell, where I can't take no smell

It's like a oven baking for two thousand years

When the morning comes, I and I would run to get some tea

Here comes the boss with his baton

Sayin' "Dreadlocks you don't come here

To drink pea soup and fatten”, oh oh

As time and time go by, oh oh

It's the set for the same every day

So if you can't do the time, don't bother with no crime

'Cause the food that you take to save your life can let you lose it the same

General, general, general penitentiary

General penitentiary, oh oh

General, general, general penitentiary, oh oh

General penitentiary

It's a warehouse of human slavery

And it doesn't help for a person who need a weekly salary

So if your eyes can't be fulfilled and satisfied

A lot more to come and see those chastised, hmm yeah
