lyrics

Fredo knows a lot about prison
As he eyes the skill-saw by his hand
White noise in the kitchen helps him drown his inhibitions
I think the missus will understand

In meal time and prayer time and in his sleep
He's surrounded by a certain breed
The rapists and killers and pleading deceivers
Fredo feels strangely at ease

Steady with the pistol old friend
Waiting for that metal to expand
A scream and a shot Fredo was caught
In a bloody mess he didn't plan

Fredo knows a lot about prison
His cell growing smaller everyday
A painful expression of joyful obsession
Fixed on the ring he couldn't slay
