from the songs album Babes In The Wood
Lying here watching the time pass
I could think of a million things i'd rather do
Travel at my own pace
Put myself asleep if i wanted to
Chorus
Might as well be behind bars
Than be lashed to a wave that i can't haul
Might as well be a slave
Lying low in the shade of a prison wall
Lying here watching the time pass
I could cry for the helping hands that i refused
We were good friends but i did refuse
Chorus
Might as well be behind bars
Getting used to the sound of my keeper's call
I might as well be a slave
Drinking sun through a chink in a prison wall
Down here down where the end is
You absolve me from every crime i ever planned
I was so surprised i did not think that you would understand
Chorus
Might as well be behind bars
Growing old in a carpeted hall
O might as well be a slave
Ever safe out of the rain in prison walls
Might as well be behind bars
Getting used to the sound of my keeper's call
I might as well be a slave
Always safe out of the rain in prison walls.
