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

Line 'em up, knock 'em down
Black or white or red or brown
Criminals are gonna pay
Now it's your red letter day

Execution
Another for the books
Execution

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

Line 'em up, knock 'em down
Black or white or red or brown
Criminals are gonna pay
Now it's your red letter day

Execution
Killing all the croocks
Execution

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.

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

Line 'em up, knock 'em down
Black or white or red or brown
Criminals are gonna pay
Now it's your red letter day

Execution
Another for the books
