Convict Songtext
von French Films

I′m a convict in a madhouse blues
Trying to live by the silver rule
Don't understand a word about
Pension plans or saving accounts

It′s weekends and the nightlife tunes
Dying lust in the smoking rooms
They take whatever they make
Heart fails or Jesus saves

Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Now was it all I ever wanted too? Uh-huh
All I ever wanted too

Flick through for a better view
Screens get bigger for smaller news
I'd like to love, but it's a teenage dream
And all the Biebers turn into junkies at nineteen


Suits, ties and lies for good
Black-eyed wives drinking Jack at noon
Don′t you miss your one last chance
To lose everything for the dance

Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Now was it all you ever wanted too? Uh-huh
All you ever wanted too
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Now was it all we ever wanted too? Uh-huh
All we ever wanted too

Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Oh, everybody′s waiting for something
But who's crawlin′ to the right way?
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Oh, everybody's waiting for something
Whoo-ooh, whoo-ooh
Hiding from the devil in the morning
