Borstal Boys(Rehearsal) - Faces

Cell block five how I hate bromide
With your coffee in the morning makes you so sterile
The corner gang never made a man of me boy
You know the walls are tall and the inmates scheme
There's no one here that's more than seventeen
Bet your life there's a riot tonight in the mess hall
Listen
A letter from your home town makes you sad
You read it when the wardens had a second laugh
He said sentimental rubbish ain't got no place in here boy
See the years roll on by
Such a senseless waste of time
What a way to reform
Call out your number
Who's a nonconformer
Not me baby oh yeah
Shakey brown didn't hang around
When a molotow didn't do it's stuff
You went back in there and said it with a sawed off shotgun
You know poker sam couldn't lose a hand
If he did you were hit by a downtown tram
Or crushed in the path of a moving elevator elevator
See the years roll on by
Such a senseless waste of time
What a way to reform
Call out your number
Who's a nonconformer
Not me baby oh yeah
When I get out I'll get straight
If this old world gives me half a break
But if you see me in the corner with a chip on my shoulder
Don't blame me don't blame me baby no no
Got to make a break for the county line
