25 to Life

It’s 2AM in the drunk tank,

Wishing I could write you a note,

Just another fight with the Mrs.,

But this time your timing’s just right,

They caught me with a boatload of dirt weed,

A duffle of psychedelics too,

Now it’s 2AM in the drunk tank,

Facing 25 to life,

25 to life.

25 to life.

It’s 3AM in the drunk tank

Wishing I could write you a note,

I love you despite the restraining order,

And I’ll love you for all of my life,

Just another night with the Mrs.

Just another 9-1-1 call,

Now It’s 3AM in the drunk tank,

And I’m facing 25 to life,

As I sit here and think all this through dear,

Some guy with a shank or a knife,

Is hollerin at me like a crazy man,

And threatening to take away my life,

Now its 4am in the drunk tank,

Still seeing everything in threes,

So I tell him I got nothin to lose sir,

So get the fuck out of my face,

Earlier, when they took my mugshot,

Guess that’s when I wrote you this note,

I’m spiraling down the pipe babe,

Facing 25 to life.

It’s 2AM in the drunk tank,

It’s 3AM in the drunk tank,

It’s 4AM in the drunk tank,

Facing 25 to life.

25 to life.

25 to life.

25 to life.

25 to life.
