Lyrics The Prisoner - The Saints

The Prisoner

You’re a man in a cage
I see you everyday
You’re the one who has everything
But your thoughts are disturbed
You don’t like what you’ve heard
You condemn what you don’t understand
And you think you’re happy, better than the rest
But you’re a prisoner like everybody else
Watch the light as it moves
Feel the eyes in your room
You are free you can do anything
And you think you’re happy, better than the rest
Still you’re a prisoner just like everybody else
(whistling)
Lock your heroes away
Put your mind out to play
Take a walk to the edge of town
As you’re dragged to the ground
Close your ear to the sound
But you’re safe 'cause it can’t happen here
And you think you’re happy, better than the rest
But you’re a prisoner like everybody else
And you think you’re happy, better than the rest
But you’re a prisoner just like everybody else
And you think you’re happy, better than the rest
But you’re a prisoner like everybody else
Yeah and you think you’re happy, so better than the rest
But you’re a prisoner just like everybody else
(whistling)
