Skrewdriver - Behind the Bars Lyrics

lying in the cell, lookin through the bars

lookin at the open feilds, so near and yet so far

wonderin bout your freinds out there, and what they're doin now

and wishin you could be with them today



behind the bars

behind the bars

behind the bars because you stood up for your race, now



try and break your spirits, they'll try to grind you down

if you stand up for your country, they don't want you around

you wonder what you're doin here, and if its all worth while

they'll never crush the pride thats in your heart



behind the bars

behind the bars

behind the bars because you stood up for your race, now



behind the bars

behind the bars

behind the bars because you stood up for your race



try and make you angry, they'll make new rules for you

cause you are what they fear, you're ideals stay true

you thank the rules that stake you, cause you stand firm and proud

you'll never let them tear your country down



behind the bars

behind the bars

behind the bars because you stood up for your race
