[Chorus]

In the US of A, you can have a grand old time

Just beware the laws, don't commit a crime

Good old George W, cleaning out death row

Just for you

Lethal injection, for your protection

[Bridge]

Line 'em up, knock 'em down

Black or white or red or brown

Criminals are gonna pay

Now it's your red letter day

[Hook]

Execution

Another for the books

Execution

[Verse 1]

First the hangman's noose, then the electric chair

Now the deadly needle brings crime to bear

Sixty-six in 2001, seventy one the next year

Were done

Numbers are rising, critics surmising

[Bridge]

Line 'em up, knock 'em down

Black or white or red or brown

Criminals are gonna pay

Now it's your red letter day

[Hook]

Execution

Killing all the crooks

Execution

[Verse 2]

Your last meal goes down like lead

Final minutes, soon you'll be dead

Was it worth it, your life of crime?

Life's too short, never is enough time

[Chorus]

In the US of A, you can have a grand old time

Just beware the laws, don't commit a crime

Good old George W, cleaning out death row

Just for you

Lethal injection, for your protection

[Bridge]

Line 'em up, knock 'em down

Black or white or red or brown

Criminals are gonna pay

Now it's your red letter day

[Hook]

Execution

Another for the books

Execution
