You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison Lyrics
Send "You Know What They Do To Guys Like Us In Prison" Ringtone to your Cell
In the middle of a gun fight...
In the center of a restaurant...
They say, "Come with your arms raised high!"
Well, they're never gonna get me,
And like a bullet through a flock of doves...
To wage this war against your faith in me,
Your life...will never be the same.
On your mother's eyes, say a prayer...say a prayer!
[Chorus]
Now, but I can't
And I don't know
How we're just two men as God had made us,
Well, I can't...well, I can!
Too much, too late, or just not enough of this
Pain in my heart for your dying wish,
I'll kiss your lips again.
They all cheat at cards and the checkers are lost,
My cellmate's a killer, they made me do push-ups (in drag)
But nobody cares if you're losing yourself...am I losing myself?!
Well, I miss my mom,
Will they give me the chair,
Or lethal injection, or swing from a rope if you dare;
Ah, nobody knows...all the trouble I've seen!
[Chorus]
To your room...
What they ask of you
Will make you want to say, "So long..."
Well, I don't remember,
Why remember...YOU?!
Do you have the keys to the hotel?!
'Cause I'm gonna string this motherfucker on fire! (FIRE!!)
Life is but a dream for the dead,
And well I, I won't go down by myself,
But I'll go down with my friends.
Now now now now...now now now...now now now!!

I'm not really an MCR fan, but my friend, who's obsessed, got me to like some of their songs... and when she told me about this, she mentioned that it was quite controversial when it came out. You know, 'cause of all the man-on-man business and whatnot. Anyway, I thought that going to a lyrics discussion board might be fun to talk about the controversial subject, but apparently the only thing people have to say is "OMG, gerards giggling is soooooo cute! lolz i wanna c HIM in drag".
Good to know music is being respected out there.

Just a try to translate it into french
Aux milieux d'un combat d'arme
Au centre d'un restaurant
Ils disaient : " Venez les mains en l'air! "
ils ne m'auront jamais,
Et comme une balle dans une flaque de mousse
Pour ériger cette guerre contre ta foi en moi
Ta vie... ne sera plus jamais pareil
"Sur la vie" de ta mère, fais une prière... fais une prière!
(Refrain)
Maintenant, mais je peut pas,
Et je ne sais pas,
Pourquoi on est deux hommes comme Dieu nous a fait,
Et je peut pas
Et je peut,
Beaucoup trop, trop tard, j'en ai juste assez de tout ça,
de tant payer pour ton désir pervers,
J'embrassait tes lèvres encore.
Ils trichent tous aux cartes, et les "arbitres" ont disparus,
Mon compagon de cellule est un tueur, ils m'ont forcés à me lever
Mais tout le monde s'en cogne si t'es paumé... suis-je paumé?
Ma mère me manque
Me mettront-ils sur la chaise,
ou me donneront-ils une injection lethal
ou peut être la strangulation par la corde si j'osait
ah... personne ne peut s'immaginer "tout ce que j'ai dû subir"
(Refrain)
Dans ta cellule
Ce qu'ils te demandent
Te donnerais envie de t'assoir pour longtemps
Mais je ne m'en souvient plus,
Pourquoi je me souvient de... toi
Est-ce que t'as les clefs de l'hotel?!
Parceque je vais fouttre ce fumier en feu ( en feu )
La vie est comme un rêve pour un mort
Et je, je ne crêverais pas seul
Mais je crêverais avec mes potes
En substance voilà ce qui est dit dans cette chanson, un vrai moment de bonheur sadique à l'écoute de la douleur que subit ce pauvre type! Gerard est bien le seul ( de sa génération ) a savoir aussi bien transposer des émotions de ce type dans des chansons, espérons qu'il vivra encore longtemps avec ce don!
translation: A real moment of saddest happiness in earing this song ( 'cause of the real pain of that poor guy ) Gerard is really the only one ( of his / our generation ) who could write ,with so much trust, emotions in this kind of song, hope he will live for long with this gift!

I want to call this their best song ever, but they more than likely have better. lol. MCR rox, sadly I'm not a true to heart MCR fan, I've only known them from their first album, but I do like them a lot, I wish I could call myself a true fan, oh well. :'( They still rock!!!

I love MCR. They really are one of my favorite bands, so don't call me a hater. But people are saying how great this song is live. No offense to them or anything, but they suck live. I don't know what it is that makes them so bad, but they just are. And before anyone asks, I have seen them live, so I DO know what it sounds like. As much as I like MCR, that was the worst concert I've ever been to.

the lyrics to mcr's songs are all amazingly as they should be. i'd make more sense if it weren't so late. [or early..]
this one always gets stuck in my head.

Ho hum, corrections...
"Now, but I can't,
And I don't know,
How we're just two men as god had made us,
Well I can't
Well I can,
Too much, too late, and just not enough of this,
Pain in my heart for your dying wish,
I'll kiss your lips again."
Rocking song, by the way.
