Don’t you call her girl because
A woman she and what a woman she is, cuz
She sing hotter than a star
One night we saw her set fire to all the cops’ cars
She don’t gotta smile, She don’t have to be nice
She lives her life in a prison they call paradise
Even he isn’t as good as he is.
Number one among some diamond geezers
Finally found someone who’ll listen
Sends it out over the short wave
set up in his kitchen
And if you knew him
you’d know it isn’t right
That he should live his life in a prison they call paradise
And our captors
with their fingers on their Sig Sauers
Yes the can shoot you…
But they cannot play guitar
They come out here to kill us because they’re killers
They gawk at our girlfriends and our sisters
They mock our mothers and our wives
Don’t let them lie, they have no love of life
They say: give us your tired, poor, defenseless
They educate us by beating us senseless
They’ve got a book full of reasons they are right
That we should live our lives in a prison they call paradise
