Can't Escape
Johnny law he comes a creepin'
at my door his a knockin'
In a back room I am a hiding
Nobody's gonna stop me
from Noddin'
Can't escape - the monkey's hunger
Can't escape - the loss of wonder
Can't escape - the self-made hell
Can't escape - this prison cell
Night falls, the streets I'm hitting
to your house I come a robbin'
At home a hungry baby's crying
Don't bother daddy
While he's fixing
Can't escape - the monkey's hunger
Can't escape - the loss of wonder
Can't escape - the self-made hell
Can't escape - this prison cell
All alone now I am a crying
All my friends they are a dying
The monkey's screamin since I fell
I can't escape this
Lonely prison cell
