Prison Movie Lover

Parsley, 11/05/02

I’ve been in the hole all night
ever since that lunchroom fight
I’d do it all again and I bet I will.
The warden says I’ll never learn
but deep inside a flame still burns
for you, babe, you’re my prison movie girl.

(Chorus)
Oh, Darling, be my prison movie lover
inside these walls we’ll make our dreams come true.
She’s my punk and I’m her bitch
she helps me scratch a certain itch
We’re in love for life on a chain gang built for two.

I saw you in the shower stall
with sandals and a towel and all
I didn’t know what I was gonna do.
But then I saw you drop the soap
and it confirmed my wildest hopes
Bend over for me honey, I love you.

(Chorus)

It’s not that I’m possessive, babe,
but we all know ‘bout prison rape
Don’t go out on the yard unless I’m with you.
If I see you with those other guys
I’ll jam a spoon between their eyes
and strangle them with the laces of my shoes.

(Chorus)

I think of you when I’m at work
The wages suck, the guard’s a jerk,
but thinkin’ ‘bout my woman gets me through.
Somewhere in some certain state
some fellow’s got a license plate
that says “3AB7 I LUV U”

(Chorus)

At Alcatraz we swam for shore
but then we swam on back for more.
In Shawshank, girl, I wriggled through your tube.
In Folsom I heard something blowin’,
hung my head and started goin’.
In San Quentin I ate every inch of you.

(Chorus)

I don’t want what you can’t give
just be my sock, I’ll be your shiv
I’d take on every prison gang for you.
If we’ve got love and coveralls
there’s nothing there outside these walls
we need, ‘cuz we’re already on the moon.
(Chorus)
