There is a prison that I know
A place where people like me go
We sit here for hours on end
Wanting for time to spend
This is a prison that I know
Where the board is full
And the halls overflow
Kids dream of summery pools
And I dream of a place I call home
A place where I am from
I wish to be home in my room
Because here feels like a tomb
I await for the bells to ring
They signal my parol
The inmates are actually singing
As we wait for the seconds to toll
Ding ding ding!
Sing sing sing!
The students leap from their seats
It's time to make my retreat
Another year awaits us
