Over The Wall II

Where is the woman I call my wife?
Waiting for me to resume my life?
Guarding her ass with a kitchen knife?
Or screwing the janitor
Over the wall
Where is the friend in the photograph
Tender amigo who made me laugh
Splitting the shit with me, half and half
Is he taking good care of it?
Or stealing my share of it?
Over the wall

So I sit on my cot and my memory whirls
As I think of the boys dressing up like girls
Wearing too much mascara and phony pearls
Over the wall

Where are the children who bear my name?
Making a circle to play a game?
Do they say to the neighbors I'm not to blame?
Or spit at the thought of me?
Over the wall

So I wait in my cell feeling half alive
Sharing food with a rat, maybe four or five
While the rats with the power can all survive
Over the wall

Over the wall
Over the wall
Over the wall
Over the wall
Over the wall
Over the wall
Over the wall
Over the wall
Over the wall
