Poison - Letter From Death Row Lyrics
Sitting here in my cell writing a letterThanking all the people who made my living conditions betterAnd thanks to the justice systemIm making a millionMy lawyer got me a book dealNow Im making a killing just from making a killingI got an agent for the publicityAn accountant to count my royaltiesThe talk shows want me, sorry I cant goIm stuck here on death rowYou call me hannibal lechter, if I was smarterIf I was charlie manson youd make me a martyr wouldnt yaYoud call me a handsome man if I was bundyBut if I looked like john wayne gasey youd just say Im funny, not ha ha funnyChorus:Tried to act my career just floppedKilled my neighbor, got on copsProblem is, I only made one show nowIm stuck here on death rowThe poor victims families never make a dimeNetworks say Im not prime timeAll my cell mates on my cell blockSay Im the hottest topic at the coffee shopsWaitress cries, God how they should free meSend me her love letters, says someday shed really love to meet meTells her customers people should forgive me for the things I doI wonder if I kill her would her family forgive me too?ChorusThanks for the attention and the publicityThe taxpayers dollars that you spend on meThanks for the good meal, dry bed, and these warm clothesIm alive and well on death row
