Prisoner lyrics with English Translations
Somebody told me about it
When I was still a little boy
He said to me: "Crime does not pay"
He said to me: "Education is the key"
As a little boy I thought
I knew what I was doing
But today here I am in jail
I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..)
I looked all around me, but to see nothing But four grey walls staring at me The policeman said to me son They won't build no schools anymore All they build will be prison, prison They won't build no schools anymore All they build will be prison, prison They won't build no schools anymore All they build will be prison, prison
I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..)
I asked the policeman, he said How much must I pay for my freedom He said to me son They won't build no schools anymore They won't build no hospitals They won't build no schools anymore They won't build no hospitals All they build will be prison, prison All they build will be prison, prison All they build will be prison, prison All they build will be..
I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..)
I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..)
I looked all around me, but to see nothing But four grey walls staring at me The policeman said to me son They won't build no schools anymore All they build will be prison, prison They won't build no schools anymore All they build will be prison, prison They won't build no schools anymore All they build will be prison, prison
I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..)
I asked the policeman, he said How much must I pay for my freedom He said to me son They won't build no schools anymore They won't build no hospitals They won't build no schools anymore They won't build no hospitals All they build will be prison, prison All they build will be prison, prison All they build will be prison, prison All they build will be..
I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..) I am a prisoner (prisoner..)
