feltham is singing out

it started off alright

we'd go out friday night

and have a drink and do whatever made us feel alright

we'd stay out all weekend

try taking everything

but never hurt no-one and so what

you only live once - i thought

'till i got caught

that weren't enough for you

you'd go out monday too

and tuesday

wednesday

thursday 'till it all caught up with you

you're everyone's best friend

'long as they've got something

i did not know you no more

heartbreak - a sickness i can't see

oh-no-no-no-no-no-no

feltham is singing out

feltham is singing out

tonight a light's gone out

21 years old and out

feltham is singing out

we all went out one night

you got us in a fight

you owed some money

to a monkey who had seen you right

you sold your furniture

so you could pay him off

they cut the power

can't afford it you slept on the floor

you can't hold down a job

so then you had to rob

first from your mom and then your friends and then the local shop

but as a criminal

you're just no good at all

you got your collar felt

so dumb

you thought about skipping bail

now you're in jail

feltham is singing out

feltham is singing out

tonight a light's gone out

21 years old and out

feltham is singing out

you don't like prison life

you loved to watch the sky

and you get beat and injured

end up throwing up all night

you could not take no more

so when they closed the door

tied up your sheets - strang yourself up

and then you were no more

no more

every day i

i

i see your face

as i walk on by past that awful place

23 hours in a cell

each and every day just locked up living hell

living hell

living hell
