Roger Chapman - Techno-Prisoners

Techno-Prisoners

Got me a mynah, but it can't talk
I got a wolfhound, it don't walk
Turn me a corner, I can't see round
Climb me a mountain, I can't see down

Wearing shackles - ball and chain
Working suit - faded grey
Soulless boots - very plain
Gathering darkness - day by day
Want a number - please refer
Prisoner - prisoner
Want a number - call return
Prisoner

I got a window, I can't see through
Where is it? In my bathroom
Got me a firkin, ain't got no cup
I got a crater, I can't fill up
Got me a mirror, that don't reflect
A rabbit's foot, that don't protect

Wearing shackles - ball and chain
Working suit - faded grey
Soulless boots - very plain
Gathering darkness - day by day
Want a number - please refer
Prisoner - prisoner
Want a number - call return
Prisoner

Got me a halo that's prone to slip
Leans to the left on equality
Out there's an ocean of leaky junks
And bible belts and defrocked monks
I got a record and that's a crime
An enemy, by god he's doing time

Wearing shackles - ball and chain
Working suit - faded grey
Soulless boots - very plain
Gathering darkness - day by day
Want a number - please refer
Prisoner - prisoner
Want a number - call return
Prisoner
