Blood Money
Round up the boys
Let’s hit the bars
Do whatcha want here after dark
Nobody cares
Nobody cries for
Blood money
Gimme a hit of it
Make it legitimate
High as the price of a phone call
Don’t tell my donors,
Board members, or owners
Somebody else broke the law
Blood money
Blood money
There’s COVID and stabbings,
pills, hooch, and baggies,
Husbands who can’t see their wives
No touching, no touching
Good people do nothing
I’m doing the time of my life
Blood money
Blood money
The butcher, the banker,
The schools and the lunch makers,
all in the same industry
Owned by the prisons,
Punish then forgive em
O what a joy to be free
If you’ve a problem
Talk to the monster
But don’t you dare question our partners
Santa’s little helpers
Are just seeking shelter
So stop trying to make their job harder
A man needs his money
And prison makes plenty
And rehab’s expensive as hell
So fund the non-profits
With for-profit prisons
And laugh all the way to the bank
Blood money
Blood money
