The Prisoner Lyrics - Super Black Market Clash - The Clash

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

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

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
