Lennon John - Born in Prison Lyrics




Were born in a prison

Raised in a prison

Sent to a prison called school



We cry in a prison

We love in a prison

We dream in a prison like fools





Wood becomes a flute when its loved

Reach for yourself and your battered mates

Mirror becomes a razor when its broken

Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate





We live with no reason

Kicked around for no reason

Thrown out without reason like tools





We work in a prison

And hate in a prison

And die in a prison as a rule





Wood becomes a flute when its loved

Reach for yourself and your battered mates

Mirror becomes a razor when its broken

Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate





We live in a prison

Among judges and wardens

And wait for no reason for you

We laugh in a prison

Go through all four seasons

And die with no vision of truth





Wood becomes a flute when its loved

Reach for yourself and your battered mates

Mirror becomes a razor when its broken

Look in the mirror and see your shattered fate
