Mull Historical Society - Strangeways Inside lyrics

She's sniffing the night His arms in the air She follows the light He's already there She lights up a cigarette He sings her a song She likes to forget He helps her along And we wash their hair And we test their eyes It must be like Strangeways Is living inside She peels from a leaf He circles the stars She picks her teeth He stares at the cars The man from England said There's no sign of bodies The man from England read Let hope be on their side She pours him a Coke He opens his heart She tells him a joke They're forever a spark And we wash their hair And we test their eyes It must be like Strangeways Is living inside And we let them in And we take them out We're watching their progress One day they'll be out
