What's all this spunk on the duckboards?
Come on Lawrence... come on Lawrence...
Let's go out and have a prayer meeting
Take a chance with our new shotgun
Hey! Come on Lawrence!
It's time we escaped again, my son
Oi! Come on!

Aaaaagh
Hey, hey, take me away I hate waking up in this place
There's nutters in here who whistle and cheer 
When they're watching a one-legged race
And a one-legged prefect gets me in bed 
Makes me play with his dick
And One legged orderly is shouting the odds
Driving me bloody well sick

When I get better, when I get strong
Will I be alright in the head?
They're making me well, if they're caring for me
Why do they boot me and punch me?
Why do they bash me and crunch me?
Some of the counterpanes are pink and other ones are blue

Hey, hey, take me away
From the ones that go mad every night
They're crazy and dangerous one-legged sods
Who have to sit down when they bite
One-legged Peter who knows bloody well
He's got worse ever since he came in
This other poor cunt, he was born back-to-front
And he's always got stuff on his chin

When I get better, when I get strong
Will I be alright in the head?
Give me a sweet and accost me
I'll do what the fellas have lost me
I know it's brown 
And the walls have been scraped 
With blood where someone hanged themselves
I hope so!

Get it?
Hey, hey, take me away
I'm the first to put last in the past
Take the handcuffs away and please do what I say
'Cause I hate the untouchable cast
I want to be normal in body and soul
And normal in thought, work and in deed
And everyone here will whist
