He can’t seem to sleep for wondering
The happening of things to come
The kerosene candle’s wick’s burning thin
As another day’s dawn has begun
Their freedom is gone with the glitter of dawn
Handcuffs are strong and there’s no way to run
The strobe lights are on; an alarm plays its song
Now they’re serving time to make amends
Mimi and Marcel were busted
They lifted some things that they needed
Disguised they were stealing on Christmas evening
They were desperate for something to eat
Their freedom is gone with the glitter of dawn
Handcuffs are strong and there’s no way to run
The strobe lights are on; an alarm plays its song
Now they’re serving time to make amends
Sunlight beams through tiny windows
His shadow is soon to rise
Stuck in a cell where the bars are all real
The life of a criminal mime
Their freedom is gone with the glitter of dawn
Handcuffs are strong and there’s no way to run
The strobe lights are on; an alarm plays its song
Now they’re serving time to make amends
Their freedom is gone with the glitter of dawn
Handcuffs are strong and there’s no way to run
The strobe lights are on; an alarm plays its song
Now they’re serving time to make amends
Their freedom is gone with the glitter of dawn
Handcuffs are strong and there’s no way to run
