The Birdwatchers - Prison Riot Lyrics

Up all night and you're ready to go
Tipping your hat to the people you know
It's alright, it's alright today

And they'll laugh in your face
Saying crime doesn't pay
You constitutional slave
Ha

Alright
Up all night and you're ready to go
Waving your hat to the people who just
Ignore it, ignore it again

As they lecture children
Saying "don't be like them
They're less than human"

Oh but
Whether or not your time's been done
Doesn't matter cause in their eyes you will
Always be criminal scum

It's in the presentation
Cause they don't care about
Rehabilitation

They'll say
"All I know and all I see
Doesn't really matter all that much to me"
"They'll get no sympathy"
Oh no

So trade a month's wage
For medical supplies
With a ball and chain
The time will not fly
