about

From Atari Champ's 2003 CD Nostalgia. Part of a trilogy with the songs Criminal Conversation and Run Out of Chances.

lyrics

The plea bargain brought a six year sentence
Out after three with three years probation left
Punished for a crime he had no part of
All for a guilty wife who deserved no pardon

The three years passed like twelve
One week passed like a month
Spending days without a word in cell block number one
You only saw your wife on visitation days
But she hadn't changed her antisocial ways

Love to some is a device
Used to make someone else the sacrifice
Love to some is a device
Used to make someone else the sacrifice

Love to some is a device
Used to make someone else the sacrifice
Love to some is a device
Used to make someone else the sacrfice
The sacrifice

You got out on a Thursday
In the middle of the night
You face lit up when you saw your old truck
And your nervous wife
