I'm in prison, I drop the soap.
I bend to pick it up you give me a poke.
I kind of like it, I don't know why.
I'm not queer, I'm just a new guy.

When I first came in, you called me fresh fish.
After a while I became your bitch.
You protect from the big gronky guys.
I give you head, you say I have pretty eyes.

Prison life's the life for me,
We're all one happy family.
Prison life it is the life for me.

Conjugal visits, they piss me off.
Nobody comes, I just jerk off.
I don't get pussy, I wish I did.
But I can't get you pregnant, so we can't have a kid.

Prison life's the life for me,
we're all one happy family.
Prison life it is the life for me.

Since you've been gone, it's been no good.
My new butch doesn't treat me like he should.
He ass rapes me, I don't know why.
I'm not queer and I'm not the new guy

Prison life's the life for me,
we're all one happy family.
Prison life it is the life for me.
