Lyrics Tom Robinson

Tom Robinson

Prison

Chained to the table, stuck in a rut

Drinking tea with sugar in a plastic cup

I know every brick in the wall outside

Never been so bored in all of my life

I'm sitting in a prison

D-d-down in a dungeon

That's what I am

I listen to the rattle of the railway track

Wanna leave this place and never come back

I'm sat here looking at the fire escape

I just can't wait till visiting day (on a Friday night)

Just sitting in a prison

D-d-down in a dungeon

Sitting in prison

D-d-down in a dungeon

I know this prison like the back of my hand

How can I make you understand

There's bars on the window, neon light

Electric fencing, dogs outside

I'm sat here watching you talk to me

Through a plate glass window you can't see

I wanna come out and make love to you

Oh but I've got another ten years to do

Sitting in a prison

D-d-down in a dungeon - that's what I am

Sitting in prison

Down in a dungeon
