THE CRAZY PLACE

THE CRAZY PLACE 

There is a place called Woombye
I never will forget 
They treat you bad
They treat you cruel
Thats why I've caught them in this net 

They locked the door 
They took my phone 
And my cigarettes
I told them they'd be sorry 
It was something they would live to regret 

They took my  freedom and my soul 
They even broke my heart 
But they couldn't take my independence 
I dug my heels in right from the very start

The others were like zombies 
Drugged up to the cor
No-one gave a crap about them
No-one cared at all 

So I became their confidant 
Their savior if you will
I said 'I will look after you'
They said 'here take another pill'. 

The rules were tough 
and hard to take 
Until it became quite clear 
They'd forgotten who they were dealing with 
Someone sane 
Someone completely void of all fear 

So I played their game 
And I behaved 
They thought they had me beat 
Until the day I proved them wrong 
I would never admit defeat 

As time moved on
I'd had enough so I broke all the rules, 
I cried, I lied, and I fought, 
I treated them all like fools

My days were filled with chaos Causing them much concern 
The inmates all hailed me a God 
They trusted me at every turn 

The jailers hated me on site 
They hated what I did
They wanted my time to be up
They were desperate 
to close the lid

But my family had paid good money 
To ensure I couldn't leave 
Their absence made it crystal clear 
For me there would be no reprieve 

I had no choice 
I had to stay
I had to weather it out
I fought the battles I knew I'd win
It wasn't me who did the sin

When finally the day arrived 
That I'd been waiting for
I gave out gifts, I gave out hits 
It was time to even the score

So write today down in your minds
And remember who I am 
I'm the one you couldn't break 
I'm gonna be your Son of Sam

I'm gonna make you bitchs pay
One way or another 
I wrote that book like I said I would 
Arn't you now sorry you didn't believe I could
