The Prisoner |
A misfit who is old before his time |
Poverty has turned him to crime |
Boredom gives him too much time to think |
He pours another drink |
A burning, bitter taste of irony |
A prisoner in the land of the free |
He wonders why his landscape looks so strange |
Burger bars are home on the range |
An empty bottle falling from his hand |
He does’nt understand |
A burning, bitter taste of irony |
A prisoner in the land of the free |
A cork unlocks the door to other lands |
Of battles won and destinies in hand |
A half-remembered state of liquid dreams |
Where things aren’t what they seem |
A burning, bitter taste of irony |
A prisoner in the land of the free |
A naked savage dressed in shirt and jeans |
A burning, bitter taste of irony |
A prisoner in the land of the free |
A burning, bitter taste of irony |
A prisoner in the land of the free |
