The Prisoner |
| Sitting in my peter all alone |
| And the sun don’t shine on my skin and bones |
| I’m left to rot in hell inside a prison cell |
| I’m doing time for something I ain’t done |
| A policeman he said I pulled a gun |
| But I wasn’t there oh God I swear |
| And I wish that I could be |
| Oh I wish that I could be |
| Yes I wish that I could be |
| So free, so free |
| Slop in slop out and then lights out |
| This prison life is killing me it’s wearing me down |
| I crave for liberty they’re pissing in my tea |
| Systemised brutality |
| The screws and the cons have it in for me |
| I play the waiting game a number for a name |
| And I wish that I could be |
| Oh I wish that I could be |
| Yes I wish that I could be |
| So free so free |
| So free so free |
| So free so free |
| I miss my girl and I miss my ma |
| I dream of walking out through that door |
| But much to my surprise I’m institutionalised |
| I’m on the inside and I’m looking out |
| Stare at the bars and I scream and shout |
| But no-one hears my plea they’ve thrown away the key |
| And I wish that I could be |
| Oh I wish that I could be |
| Yes I wish that I could be |
| So free so free |
| So free so free |
| So free so free |
| So free so free |
| So free so free |
