Lyrics

[Intro]
Mmm
No, no, no, no, oh, yeah
[Verse 1]
I'm in chains, you're in chains, too
I wear uniforms and you wear uniforms, too
I'm a prisoner, you're a prisoner, too
Mr. Jailer
Oh, I have fears, you have fears, too
I'll die, but you sef go die, too
Life is beautiful, don't you think so, too?
Mr. Jailer
[Chorus]
I'm talkin' to you, Jailer
Stop callin' me a prisoner
Let he who is without sin
Be the first to cast the stone
Mr. Jailer, Mr. Jailer man
[Verse 2]
You suppress all my strategies
You oppress, whoa, every part of me
What you don't know, you're a victim, too
Mr. Jailer
Oh, you don't care about my point of view
If I die, another will work for you
So you treat me like a modern slave
Mr. Jailer
[Chorus]
I'm talkin' to you, Jailer
Stop callin' me a prisoner
Let he who is without sin
Be the first to cast the stone
Mr. Jailer, Mr. Jailer man
[Verse 3]
You see, if you're walking in the marketplace
Don't throw stones
Even if you do, you just might hit
One of your own
Life is not about your policies
All the time
So you better rearrange your philosophies
And be good to your fellow man, Jailer
[Chorus]
Stop callin' me a prisoner
Let he who is without sin
Be the first to cast the stone
Mr. Jailer
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm talkin' to you, Jailer
Stop callin' me a prisoner
Let he who is without sin
Be the first to cast the stone
Mr. Jailer, Mr. Jailer
[Verse 4]
I heard my baby say, "I wanna be president
I want your money for my government"
What he don't know, what he won't know
What he can't know
Jailer, Jailer
[Outro]
Oh, be good o, be good o, be good, o
Somebody be good o, be good o, be good
Oh, be good o, be good o, be good o
Jailer, Jailer
