The Prisoner - Jake Thackray[00:00:02]
Young foreign soldier evening approaches [00:00:13]
The prisoner will come from his[00:00:17]
Dark cell and kill you [00:00:19]
Prisoners go dangerous if chained[00:00:23]
In their homeland;[00:00:26]
His knife will sink into you [00:00:27]
Poor bastard soldier [00:00:30]
Do you ever remember home [00:00:35]
Do the tears ever flow [00:00:37]
Do you sing sentimental songs[00:00:40]
Of your countryside [00:00:42]
Is the grass forever green - flowers[00:00:45]
Grow there freely [00:00:48]
Can you hear singing birds Young soldier [00:00:50]
The prisoner once heard them [00:00:53]
Young foreign soldier - the path[00:01:03]
By the barley field [00:01:06]
The gate to the garden the girl[00:01:08]
In the pinafore [00:01:10]
The big bed at daybreak [00:01:13]
Where children crept in to you;[00:01:15]
The path by the barley field [00:01:18]
Poor bastard soldier [00:01:21]
Remember what you did at night time [00:01:25]
The happy kisses in the darkness;[00:01:27]
Are there some good words for love[00:01:29]
In your language [00:01:32]
Did you promise to be true to her [00:01:35]
Swear everlastingly[00:01:37]
To never ever love another one young soldier [00:01:40]
The prisoner has sworn so [00:01:43]
Young foreign soldier have you seen[00:01:54]
Dead children -[00:01:57]
The fragile legs open the bright bird escaping;[00:01:58]
Mouths pale with questions [00:02:04]
The wide eyes still fearful [00:02:06]
Yes you have seen children poor bastard soldier [00:02:09]
If the gasping mouths were yours [00:02:16]
If you recognised the shaking lips[00:02:18]
As those you had shaped with your[00:02:21]
Lifetime's caresses [00:02:24]
Would you not gouge eyes curse every Jesus Christ [00:02:27]
Would you not scream Young soldier [00:02:31]
The prisoner has done so [00:02:35]
The path by the barley field the gate to the garden [00:02:45]
The girl in the pinafore the big bed at daybreak [00:02:49]
Evening approaches the knife will sink into you [00:02:55]
Poor bastard soldier Poor bastard prisoner [00:03:00]
