Lyrics
[Clyde]
I can't take no more of this
This nightmare has to end
In this Godforsaken place
Death would be a welcome friend
I could pay a crooked God to kill me
Yeah, that's it
Better that, than sixteen years dying slowly
Bit by bit
All I did was rob a few stores
Justice here don't fit the crime
I've broken by the devil
Justice is a waste of time
I won't get to Heaven
Why not raise a little hell?
He'll see me, but it's the last time
That filthy scum has gotta go
By tonight, it will be over
When I strike the fatal blow
No way out I gotta do this
Him or me, okay lets play
Never killed, but now I have to
Time to make Ed Crowder pay
I won't get to Heaven
Why not raise a little hell?
No way I'll see Heaven
So lets raise a little hell!
