The Prisoner 歌詞

The Prisoner - UB40

Written by:Jim Brown/Ali Campbell/Robin Campbell/Brian Travers/Earl Falconer/Michael Virtue/Terence Wilson/Norman Hassan

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
