ACCIDENT

They put a toothbrush shiv into his tiny hands
but takin' it to the hoop wasn't exactly what he had planned.
There's a lot you could learn from a rock and a hard place when you're doing some serious jailtime
and your cellmate is a childmolester and he wants to read you some serious nursery rhymes.

It was supposed to look like an accident,
It was supposed to look like an accident,
It was supposed to look like an accident
but it looked like a fucking wreck to me.

I already know, I already know you been pressurized.
???? But Mr. Maytag he got equalized.
In the shower cinderella showed a fella the electric shocka - he fried and then he nearly died.
But in a twist of criminal justice prince charming croaked so then cinderella sat in his cell and cried.

It was supposed to look like an accident,
It was supposed to look like an accident,
It was supposed to look like an accident
but it looked like a fucking wreck to me.

The moral of the story is do the wrong thing because it's the right thing to do.
If you have to snuff a snitch you get props and a blue bag or two.
There's a lot you could learn from a rock and hard place when you're doing some serious jailtime
and your cell mate's a diaper sniper and he wants to read you some serious nursery rhymes.

If you always think exactly what you ought you will always get what you always got.

It was supposed to look like an accident,
It was supposed to look like an accident,
It was supposed to look like an accident
but it looked like a fucking wreck to me.
