Borstal Lyrics by Oxymoron

Best before 2000

0

Now you're in a jam, hold your head between your hands
Clench your fist to keep your ground
In a war that can't be won

[Chorus:]
Banned to the borstal, now you're cornered
Banned to the borstal, you're disordered
Banned to the borstal, now you're locked away... like buried

Cry, you have no choice
Punishment at any price
You submit to what the wankers say
Just to live another day

[Chorus:]
Open you're eyes and you'll see
You're just a toy of their schemes
Open your eyes and you'll see
They try to prevent that you're free

Now they let you down, and you feel you're all alone
Just the dreams of yesterday, help you stand another day
