(To the tune of “I’ve Never Been in Love Before” by Frank Loesser, from the 1950 Broadway musical and the 1955 film Guys and Dolls, as sung by Frank Sinatra (1965); Ethan Hawke (2016); Moon & Sand (2017).)
I’ve never been in jail before.
I thought that I was quite
Invisible offshore.
I’ve never been in jail before.
The path my life was on
Has taken a detour.
And it’s no fun
When they incarcerate
You, when the hands of fate
Slam shut that prison door.
Believe me fraud’s
A tax-game you don’t win.
I know, I’ve never been
In jail before.
