Jailhouse Baby

CNN and MTV
All cameras focused on me
Helicopters up above
Oh, what a travesty

There's a crazy world at war
Right outside of my front door
They're wasting time on me
I'm just a jailhouse baby

Oh, I'm singing so sleepy
Jailhouse baby
No window in the world
I'm a little, I'm a little jailbird

Oh, I'm singing so sleepy
Jailhouse baby
No window in the world
(I'm a little, I'm a little jailbird)

Cool nights and freezing water,
Fluorescents always on
Stuck here behind this glass
My parents see their daughter

Judge, you're no celebrity
You're a desperate wannabe
Sourpuss, you'd rather leave
Real criminals on the streets

Oh, I'm singing so sleepy
Jailhouse baby
No window in the world
I'm a little, I'm a little jailbird

Oh, I'm singing so sleepy
Jailhouse baby
No window in the world
(I'm a little, I'm a little jailbird)

Handcuffs and cold concrete
Notes slipped right under my door
Look at me, caught in this cage
Just like an enemy

Like a public enemy
Make a martyr out of me
How dangerous can I be?
I'm just a jailhouse baby

Oh, I'm singing so sleepy
Jailhouse baby
No window in the world
I'm a little, I'm a little jailbird

Oh, I'm singing so sleepy
Jailhouse baby
No window in the world
(I'm a little, I'm a little jailbird)

All those lonely nights of terror
I thank you for your letters
Words from around the world
For the lonely, little jailbird

Still haunted by my errors
Why's the system so unfair?
But I'm stronger than before
No, I'm no longer scared.

Oh, I'm singing so sleepy
Jailhouse baby
No window in the world
I'm a little, I'm a little jailbird

Oh, I'm singing so sleepy
Jailhouse baby
No window in the world
(I'm a little, I'm a little jailbird)
