M.O.S. LANCELOT

LANCELOT. For 20 DOWN I have "THE KEY".....The clue is .....SING SING ? Does this refer to the U.S. prison?........What is the real name of that gaol, I understood SING SING was a corruption of the actual title? I'll bet you know this LIE - IN KING. Thanks for all your help.

20d Chokey (prison) - the cryptic shows -

'cho(p)' (unfinished cut) + 'key' (what can open)

IMO, it's a poor "Quick" clue...

Auburn Prison I think

RE. SING SING PRISON.........I thought the term sing sing was a corruption of an original SPANISH name perhaps.........Also a friend says it's because the phone number used to be 5 5.......Anyone know anymore on this .......PLEASE?
