Ugly Purple Sweater - Central Detention Facility Blues lyrics

I hear the train a'coming down the orange line Smoked pot in the parking lot, now I'm doing my time You can scoff all you want, it's the exact same crime That you commit in your two-bedroom in the new high rise Day I got out, went by the neighborhood Just a pit in the ground for the new high rise They say they're moving us back in soon as they make it look good Just in time to forget what it was we were waiting for Oh, what do you see standing way up there? Oh, what do you hear, listening from way up there? No matter what I say, the papers are on your side They got no reason to keep me here, and I got no reason to stay My brother took me to the country side When I want trouble nothing else will suffice Instead we go down to see his friend into interpretive glance She says, "oh, can't you see how time keeps dragging on?" And what about you, are your on your own? Does your daddy come every time you phone? Did your momma buy your degree, introduce to you all her friends? Co-sign the lease on your two-bedroom in the new high rise? Oh, what do you see standing way up there? Oh, what do you hear, listening from way up there? No matter what I say, the papers are on your side They got no reason to keep me here, and I got no reason to stay They got no reason to keep me here, and I got no reason to stay
