"A Poem About An Old Prison Man" lyrics

"A Poem About An Old Prison Man"
(originally by Charles Manson)

Waiting on Death Row
People coming in overalls
Taking me to the gas chamber
Scuffling of feet
They took him down the hallway
Feeling everyone's heartbeat
The central control of the soul

Batons and retro-tons
Ingrown toenails
One time all around you
All round you
Save my air, save my air
My air, my air
Air, water, trees
Machines eating the night
Energy moving
Nuclear fires

Batons and retro-tons
Ingrown toenails
One time all around you
All round you
Save my air, save my air
My air, my air
Air, water, trees
Machines eating the night
Energy moving

Burning reactors on my gate
Fires of hell are burning, burning
Come home. Can you see? can you say?
That you say that you really love this place?
