Prison Letters

They wanted to be free
Free from everything
Boring in this world
How stupid now
It seems so terrible
That all the morning brings

Is prison letters
All she receives is prison letters
Has to make time to read prison letters

It didn't really feel so wrong
We would have died you know
If we had thought it would hurt anyone
It just seemed so unfair
We had worked and worked so hard
Ah, just to get nowhere

Now it's prison letters
All she receives is prison letters
Just the kid and me and prison letters
Prison letters, prison letters
Prison letters
Have to make time to read prison letters

Love don't pay the way
In fact it falls right through
With every skint holiday
Don't dream of better days
You need to get rich soon
Ah, but the judge didn't understand

Now it's prison letters
When the morning comes, prison letters
Have to make time to read, prison letters
Have to get by on dreams, prison letters
Just the kid and me and prison letters

Prison letters
Prison letters
Prison letters
Prison letters
