Lock them up throw away the key
or else you are attacking me
Don't let them seek love online
so I can feel safe and fine
Define them only by their offense
unworthy of a second glance
Don't be fooled by crocodile tears
they're devoid of human fears
As their victim I demand my right
endless suffering be their plight
Know them as another species
for food throw them feces
Death's too good so make them live
don't expect me to forgive
Let no good books expand their mind
never know what they may find
They're rabid animals no even worse
deserving of our every curse
Their families can have no demand
for visits to their cursed land
They must endure their consignment
of solitary confinement
I get so upset when some people say
release them all one fine day
Letting beasts roam my neighborhood
to prey on the weak and good
We must not dream of rehabilitation
it's for the good of the nation
Am worthy and just am not like them
I only condemn
Lock them up throw away the key
or else you are attacking me
Don't let them seek love online
so I can feel safe and fine
Define them only by their offense
unworthy of a second glance
Don't be fooled by crocodile tears
they're devoid of human fears
As their victim I demand my right
endless suffering be their plight
Know them as another species
for food throw them feces
Death's too good so make them live
don't expect me to forgive
Let no good books expand their mind
never know what they may find
They're rabid animals no even worse
deserving of our every curse
Their families can have no demand
for visits to their cursed land
They must endure their consignment
of solitary confinement
I get so upset when some people say
release them all one fine day
Letting beasts roam my neighborhood
to prey on the weak and good
We must not dream of rehabilitation
it's for the good of the nation
Am worthy and just am not like them
I only condemn
