Buy A Pardon

Come on down to Buy A Pardon.
It’s paradise without the garden.
It’s Eden with a lot more snakes.
It’s where big bucks buy bigger breaks.
No matter what your lowdown ways,
we’ll have you out in thirty days.
No matter if you’re friend to me.
You don’t get out of jail for free.
We call the payments campaign contributions.
You have a problem and we have solutions.
If you kill a protester down on Fifth Avenue.
Worry not, you big hot shot, we’ve got an out for you.
Assassinate a nuclear scientist in Iran?
No problem, buy a pardon, hide your life out in Japan.
Our closeout and holiday sales are sure to be a hit.
Amazing how a lot of green can get you out of shit.
Remember, buy your pardon before we get out the door.
Otherwise you’ll have to wait ’til twenty-twenty-four.
