[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 will die, but yourself go die too

Life is beautiful

Don’t you think so too? Mr. Jailer


[Chorus]

I'm talking to you jailer

Stop calling 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, waoh-oh, 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 talking to you jailer

Stop calling 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 a market place, 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


[Chorus]

My jailer!

Stop calling me a prisoner

Let he who is without sin be the first to cast the stone

Mr. Jailer

Oh, I'm talking to you jailer!

Stop calling me a prisoner

Let he who is without sin be the first to cast the stone

Mr. Jailer, Mr. Jailer man


[Outro]

I hear my baby say, 'I want to be president'

I wan chop money from my government

What he don’t know

What he won't know

What he can't know

Jailer, jailer

Oh, be good o, be good o, be good o

So boy be good o, be good o, be good

Oh-oh, be good o, be good o, be good o

(Jailer, jailer)
