Life in prison, is it enough  For what they do  One day soon, so very close  It could be you  A life for a life, that's the way  The only way I say  The chair is best, also sweet  The power's all we pay    The power's all we pay  We'll end it all today  The power's all we pay    Thirty years is all they do  Less if they are good  All this time we pay their way  Goodies say we should  Then they're out, they're on the loose  To do it once again  Back in they go, the more we pay  We say they are insane    They say they are insane  Blown right out of their minds  Really gone insane    The people's vote it should be cast  The murderers would not last  Eject the filth from my lifestyle  Keep them just on file    To take a life it is a shame  They've only got themselves to blame  Death should be the penalty  Quick and cold and finally  Give them food and beds they say  The people they will pay  Treat them good and talk to them  Teach them how to pray  Does it work, of course not  We'll end it all today  As I said let's have a vote  Let them know our way    Let them know our way  We'll execute today  The power's all we'll pay    How many victims unlawfully killed upon the earth  Homicidal killers, can you tell me what they're worth  They never have a reason, never tell you why  We'll take their lives, save their souls, let them die
