I Did Time
Written by Rowdy
To the tune of High Time, written by Dennis DeYoung
I took a hooker up to my hotel room
Now there's a 400 pound inmate fluttering his eyes at me
He starts to speak in a voice so sentuous
As his hands start grabbing me
He says he's got the answers to all my problems
But all he wants is to molest me
I try moving to another corner
Now he's coming at me with his boner
Now I see in inmates looking right at me
They begin to laugh hyserically
They know I was once a Heaveyweight champ
Now I'm just another Bitch on Bubba's lap
I try very hard not to cry
Bubba's making me feel alive
When I get out I'm gonna find a fight
Take a chance to redeem myself
The boxing Commission said I healed myself
'Cause I did time
Now I fight like an A-Bomb explosion
Why did I bite Evander's ear is the question?
It was all just my sexual frustration
Old habits are comin'
The cops are comin'
I'm back in the hole
My career is crumblin
I tell the inmates and prison guards
Bubba's making his move
He wants a new invitation
I did time... oooh, owe, crap that hurts
'Cause I did time
Now I fight like an A-Bomb explosion
Why did I bite Evander's ear is the question?
It was all just my sexual frustration
Old habits are comin'
The cops are comin'
I'm back in the hole
My career is crumblin
I tell the inmates and prison guards
Bubba's making his move
He wants a new invitation
Interpretation
Former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson can't seem to stay out of prison, first for rape and then for assault (while on parole). OK, so the lyrics are a little crude, but then who said prison was a pleasant place?
