INCARCERATION


pushed and pulled
twisted and torn
backed into a corner
watch it squirm
the germ
watch it squirm

hell no hell no
won't go won't go

they call it help
they call it law
they call her nothing
they have no answers

she trips she falls
she's lost herself
no no won't go
hell hell it's hell

it's sure not Venus

they say hello they say goodbye
they come they go
the conquer they destroy
she dies

they don't have to feel it
they walk away
they don't have it sealed
inside their souls forever and a day
they just pick up and walk away

and maybe say

"well you win some you lose some
you can't win them all"

but they're cheaters and liars
and don't play fair ball

she calls out she shouts out
"foul play foul play
why do you all stack the deck this way.
is she such a lousy gamble
that you can't believe what she says?"

she's not gamblin'
just tryin' to survive
but beggars can't be choosers
can they?
banana man..banana man.
