JAILHOUSE CAROL

done to the rhyme of "Twas the night before Christmas"

It was the night before Christmas, and all thru the jail,
everyone was on lock down,cause no one would tell,
inmates were nuzzled inside of their beds,
thoughts and visions of the big boys--you know the"FEDS",
pillows were stuffed with items of care,
in hopes that sleep would soon be there;
when out in the rec yard there rose such a clatter,
 the guard rose from his desk to see what was the matter;
he threw open the door, and looked all about,
saw nothing more, and was full of doubt,
 suddenly all the doors were unlocked,
the guard outside was a frozen block; 
quickly I walked out of the pod with glee,
looking to the top of the roof of what i could see;
A sleigh with eight reindeer's staring back at me.
Then a long bearded biker climbed up on the sleigh,
said a few words and they were up and away.
I walked down the sidewalk and saw them go out of sight,
then heard a bellowing laugh and the words of fright;
Piss on you all
Merry Christmas 
and  Good Night.
