TANKARD lyrics : "Death Penalty"

Democratic nations continue executing muredreres
Innocents youths and victims of racist justice.
The death penalty doesn't deter

Doesn't satisfy, doesn't add up - all is does is kill

I feel the noose get tight

Feel the injection needle
The gas is choking me
O god, my flesh is burning


I'm alone in a cell, doctor checked, I'm alive and well
Got a lunch a la carte, 'cos tonight I'm going to hell


Four long years they've been killing me
Every day hope and desperation

Will it be today? Did I get a stay?
I'm guilty...does it help to pray...no, no, I'm innocent


Death penalty
On death row, I'm death but still alive
Death penalty

What is it like, when every day's your last?
Manis, crazy, wired, hopeless, crying, tired
Prison personel always wear a smile


Priest tells me "Son, this is a best way"
If God's love then why crucify?

Blinded by the flesh of the media
A final portrait of the beast before the slaughter's one


Death penalty
On death row, I'm death but still alive
Death penalty

What is it like, when every day's your last?
Manis, crazy, wired, hopeless, crying, tired
Prison personel always wear a smile


Shaven clean, electrodes sucked tight
Want to scream, but I'm paralyzed

Electricity tearing through my veins
The path is ripping me apart, but I'm not dead just yet


Death penalty
On death row, I'm death but still alive
Death penalty

What is it like, when every day's your last?
Manis, crazy, wired, hopeless, crying, tired
Prison personel always wear a smile


Death penalty
On death row, I'm death but still alive

You don't now what is like, when every day's death penalty
