Got me a mynah, but it can't talk I got a wolfhound, but it don't walk Got me a mountain, I can't see down Turn me a corner, I can't see round Wearing shackles - ball and chain Working suit - faded grey Soleless boots - very plain Gathering darkness - day by day Want a number - please refer Prisoner - prisoner Want a number - call return Prisoner Got me a window, I can't see through Where is it? In my bathroom Got me a firkin, ain't got no cup I got a crater, I can't fill up Got me a mirror, that don't reflect A rabbit's foot that don't protect - no Wearing shackles - ball and chain Working suit - faded grey Soleless boots - very plain Gathering darkness - day by day Want a number - please refer Prisoner - prisoner Want a number - call return Prisoner I got a Halo that's prone to slip Leans to the left on equality Out there's an ocean of leary junks And bible belts and defrocked monks I got a record and that's a crime An enemy, by god he's doing fine Wearing shackles - ball and chain Working suit - faded grey Soleless boots - very plain Gathering darkness - day by day Want a number - please refer Prisoner - prisoner Want a number - call return Prisoner Seven-four-eight-eight-six-eight-three
