lyrics

Let me trip the reason of your lecture for a change
Let me tell you how it feels
Let me strap you down a put morphine in your veins
Let me fuck this bed of steel

'Cause here comes the State Inspector
So doctor all the resident records
Truth is he really don't care less
It's just the function of the politics and the business

'Cause here comes the State Inspector
So doctor all the resident records
Truth is he really don't care less
It's just the function of the politics and the business

Deinstitutionalization
Had a wife but left her at the station
And there's women in the stairwells
Where their love lives don't fair well
They be whoring themselves away in the kitchen

But look see that woman gettin' all dressed up
She's putting on her earrings and her makeup

And in another world there's a long necked girl
Who's wishing she'd never been a grown up

Oh the squalor
Woah oh the squalor
Let it empty me
Welcome to whatever God may do
It's no secret that you'll never leave

Maybe today I wont get the wrong meds
Maybe today I'll get my 46-cent
And maybe today I'll jump that barbed wire fence
And leave this place all together

'Cause were calling all the presidents men
'Cause I’m stuck in this room locked in
Wont you do me a favor and give me ten so I can peek into the hallway again

Oh the squalor
Woah oh the squalor
Let it empty me
Welcome to whatever God may do
It's no secret that you'll never leave
