Song by Suzanna Vega<br /><br>

Too hot. No air.<br>

Loud fan and a big tin can.<br>

Wait here. Steer clear.<br>

They've gone to get your man.<br>

<br>

10 AM.<br>

Through gate 3 with picture ID.<br>

This old billfold<br>

Experiences security.<br>

<br>

I hear the click. These men are hard.<br>

I'll see your face through bar and guard. <br>

You're new to me. I'm new to you.<br>

I see your fate. I'll see you <br>

You through.<br>

<br>

Ice within.<br>

And it's all cement in the government.<br>

Approved? Then move<br>

To the plywood booth where the prisoner's sent.<br>

<br>

You read in red<br>

The letters on the door and you know what they're for.<br>

You feel unreal.<br>

And the rattling chain's coming over the floor.<br>

<br>

I hear the clock. These walls are green.<br>

I see your face through tin and screen.<br>

You're new to me. I'm new to you.<br>

I see your fate. I'll see you<br>

You through.<br>

<br>

Too hot. No air.<br>

Loud fan and a big tin can.<br>

Wait here. Steer clear.<br>

They've gone to get your man.<br>

<br>
