ross golan - the wrong man lyrics

[chorus]
the wrong man is singing this song, man
the wrong man
the wrong man is singing this song‚ man
the wrong man
how many ways can you say i won’t wait?
how many times can you mention i’ll see an extension?
there are only 90 days ’til the execution date
give me a stay‚ don’t make me a statistical anomaly

[verse 1]
it wasn’t me who shot a man in reno just to watch him die
i was at the same casino‚ but it was another guy
a folsom prisoner admitted he committed the crime
now i’m serving his time, now my life is on the line
an eye for an eye, sure
a tooth for a tooth‚ sure
but i’m not the one lying
i’ve only told the truth, sir
when i told the jury i’m an innocent man
i swore on my grave
the witness pointed out the wrong man

[chorus]
the wrong man is singing this song, man
the wrong man
the wrong man is singing this song‚ man
the wrong man
how many ways can you say i won’t wait?
how many times can you mention i’ll see an extension?
there are only 60 days ’til the execution date
give me a stay, don’t make me a statistical anomaly
the wrong man is singing this song, man
the wrong man

[verse 2]
a statistical anomaly
when i first got to this prison
and i first got in this position
news ran and a man made it a mission
to spread a statewide pet-tion
the inc-mbent governor
announced he refused to listen
said the victim won’t return
and this will teach me a lesson
if you were in my shoes
you would beg to be free too
i got less than two months until i die
tell me what can i do?
i’m not giving up until my blood runs dry

[chorus]
how many ways can you say i won’t wait?
how many times can you mention i’ll see an extension?
there are only 30 days ’til the execution date
give me a stay, don’t make me a statistical anomaly

[verse 3]
people picketing, protesting the system
police ticketing those trying to get them to listen
i pretend to hear the voices chanting, “let him be free”
but in reality, it’s been silent for 23 weeks
i’m refusing my last meal, i k!lled n-body
how can they blast pot-ssium chloride in my body?
it’s why i pleaded not guilty, i k!lled n-body
get me out of here, listen, i didn’t k!ll anybody

[chorus]
how many ways can you say i won’t wait?
how many times can you mention i’ll see an extension?
there’s only a day ’til the execution date
give me a stay, don’t make me a statistical anomaly
the wrong man is singing this song, man
the wrong man
if you were in my shoes
the wrong man is singing this song, man
the wrong man
you would beg to be free too
the wrong man is singing this song, man
the wrong man
if you were in my shoes
