the convict’s song (chanson de forçat) - mick harvey lyrics

[chorus]
oh oh oh he who has never been under lock and key
oh oh oh will never know what it is to be free
me, yes, i know this, i am an escapee

[verse 1]
oh oh what does it take to see a full blue sky and sea
to look into a black sky for four days out of three
i can look into that, i am an escapee
it is really necessary to be in custody
oh oh oh oh oh to know the price of liberty
me, yes, i know this, i am an escapee
oh does one need to lose one’s ability to see
to keep hope for the suns lost into infinity
i see them shining, i am an escapee

[chorus]
oh oh oh he who has never been under lock and key
oh oh oh will never know what it is to be free
me, yes, i know this, i am an escapee

[verse 2]
to tell the truth i am
both a forger and a sham
a rip off man, a con
the player of an illusion

one who has been set free
an eternal escapee
a maker of holes
and a breaker of bolts

a jumper of over walls
a breaker of locked doors
a maker of the stars
and a filer of bars

- mick harvey lyrics
