The Prisoner

The prisoner meets the muppet hi-fi North of Watford Junction We get in but we don't have fun An' we leave before the truncheons So it's back to watch the day to day Saga of working people Hanging out the washing and clipping coupons And generally being decent Johnny too bad meets Johnny be good In the charing cross road The only thing that happened today Says the west end jungle code And all the Germans and all the French Jam themselves down the tube And re-enact the second world war While the rude boys get rude And I look to my left And I look to my right And I'm looking for a man I'm looking for a sign I don't wanna be the, the prisoner I don't wanna be the prisoner I don't wanna be the prisoner I don't wanna be the prisoner The prisoner lives in Camden town Selling revolution The prisoner loads his tracking arm up With self-disillusion Your mother does the washing up Your old man digs the garden You're only free to dodge the cops An' bunk the train to stardom And I look to my left And I look to my right And I'm looking for a man I'm looking for a sign I don't wanna be the prisoner I don't wanna be the prisoner I don't wanna be the prisoner I don't wanna be the prisoner
