The Lyrics

My second Yellow Submarine parody. It's actually not the Beatles as prisoners, but a bunch of men and women singing in prison! Imagine that! I thought it was so funny that I decided to make a parody! Enjoy!

In the town where I was born
Lived a man who went to jail
And he told us of his life
In the land of prisoners
So we all got arrested
And we finally went to jail
And we lived in prison stripes
In our ball and chain
We all live in a ball and chain
Ball and chain, ball and chain
We all live in a ball and chain
Ball and chain, ball and chain
And our mates in prison cells
Can come out and see us
And the food, it tastes no good
(People spitting on each other)
We all live in a ball and chain
Ball and chain, ball and chain
We all live in a ball and chain
Ball and chain, ball and chain
Officer: You're under arrest for robbing a store!
Robber: I get to go to jail!
Robber 2: I'm in hand cuffs! I'm in hand cuffs!
Officer: You sure are!
Robber: *sobs*
As we try to get some peace
Robber: Get some peace!
And get some quiet
Robber: Get some quiet!
So we can sleep
Robber: So we can sleep!
Here's the sun
Robber: Here's the sun!
And here's the rain
Robber: Here's the rain!
In our ball
Robber: In our ball!
And chain
Robber: And chain! Boo hoo!
We all live in a ball and chain
Ball and chain, ball and chain
We all live in a ball and chain
Ball and chain, ball and chain
We all live in a ball and chain
Ball and chain, ball and chain
(fade with people crying)

yellow submarine 5 syllables ball and chain 3 syllables

Actually the chorus only has 2 notes, so 3 works better than 5. However there is already a famous song, "Ball and Chain" lyrics a bit different though (,'-p)

okay whatever, but to me, we all live in a ball and chain doesn't quite sound right when trying to sing it. Like the word yellow is missing.

The main reason why I thought it was funny to make this was because it doesn't make sense!
