With his cap and gown
That they give 'em at the state pen

G
One, two, three, four, five
Oh me, oh my
Count the reasons that you shouldn't be messing
Em
With the sons of perdition
Never gonna take you down the straight and narrow
G
Fever dreaming of a place
That you just can't get
Like you're burning in a pit
Em
Little brother, you're lying to yourself
If you think you've changed
C
It's just another part
G
Ain't this something strange
