I have been in prison for over forty years

They do not want to parole me

As I am considered quite mad

This saved me from chair or so I am told

But I think my family had a large say

As roasting the daughter of a classy family

Was not really on in this land of plenty

 

For many years I doubted my sanity

But have come to realise my reality

I am as sane as any fucker on the highway

More so if I am totally honest with myself

Would I commit the same crime again

That is a difficult question best left unanswered

It would depend on the mother who had fucked me off

 

I am grey now but still have my California tan

As I do spend a lot of time outside teaching others

About turning their lives around and following the dream

I am so trusted that if I walked out of the gate tomorrow

It is unlikely that I would be stopped as I am invisible

The son of the guy I killed forgave me and still visits me

He is good man who I admire but I am still not sorry for my crime
