Grey Walls |
| I took my darling down |
| I took my darling down |
| To that big grey house down the lane |
| And then the doctor said |
| He said it’s in her head |
| She’s never going to be right again |
| I kissed my love goodbye |
| She didn’t blink an eye |
| They took her down the hall |
| She never looked back at all |
| Behind grey walls |
| Somewhere there’s a soul |
| Behind grey walls |
| She’s out of control |
| Crying out for help |
| No one can hear |
| O Lord have pity on her |
| O Lord have pity on her |
| My darling walks the floor |
| My darling walks the floor |
| She walks every minute that she can |
| I heard my darling say |
| I heard my darling say |
| She don’t know who I am |
| Cigarette burns down her arm |
| Said she tried to do herself harm |
| Tied her arms in the back |
| Trussed her up like a sack |
| I saw my darling’s face |
| I saw my darling’s face |
| It looked so pale in the distance |
| She stared out from her room |
| Into the dying gloom |
| And I saw her poor tears glisten |
| Pills to keep her calm |
| More punctures than a junkie in her arm |
| Tied her down on the bed |
| Seventy volts through her head |
