"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 bored

That weren't enough for you, you'd go out Monday to
And Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday till it all caught up with you
You're everyones best friend, long as they've got something
I did not know you no more, heart break a sickness I can't see

Feltham is singing out
Feltham is singing out
Tonight a lights 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, cut the phone and you slept on the floor

You can't hold down a job, so then you had to rob
First from your mum and then your friends and then the local shops
But as a criminal you're just no good at all
You got your collar felt and so dumb
You thought about skipping bail
Now you are in jail

Feltham is singing out
Feltham is singing out
Tonight a lights 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'd get beaten and you'd end up throwing up all night
You couldn't take no more, so when they closed the door
Tore up your sheets, strung yourself up and then you were no more

Everyday I see your face
As I walk on by past that awful place
23 hours in a cell, each and every day a living hell

Feltham is singing out...
