The Prisoner Songtext
von Iron Maiden

We want information, information, information
Who are you?
The new number two
Who is number one?
You are number six
I am not a number, I am a free man!

I′m on the run, I'll kill to eat
I′m starving now, feelin' dead on my feet
Goin' all the way, I′m nature′s beast
Do what I want, and do as I please

Run, fight to breathe, it's tough
Now you see me, now you don′t
Break the walls, I'm comin′ out

Not a prisoner, I'm a free man
And my blood is my own now
Don′t care where the past was
I know where I'm going, out!


If you kill me, it's self defense
But if I kill you then I call it vengeance
Spit in your eye, I will defy
You′ll be afraid of when I call out your name

Run, fight to breathe, it′s gonna be tough
Now you see me and now you don't
Break the walls, I′m comin' out

Not a prisoner, I′m a free man
And my blood is my own now
Don't care where the past was
I know where I′m going

I'm not a number, I'm a free man
Live my life where I want to
You′d better scratch me from your black book
′Cos I'll run rings around you

Not a prisoner, I′m a free man
And my blood is my own now
Don't care where the past was
I know where I′m going

I'm not a number, I′m a free man
Live my life where I want to
You'd better scratch me from your black book
'Cos I′ll run rings around you


Not a prisoner, I′m a free man
And my blood is my own now
Don't care where the past was
I know where I′m going
