Lyin in a stone cold room

Some would call a cell

For poor old barry prossit

This one had just been hell

The screws went in with batons out

And took this young mans life

They left behind a family

A heartbroken widowed wife

Barry prossit dead

The papers screamed for justice

Put these men in jail

Ha barrys friends and family

Knew that this would fail

The screws at last were brought to court

The charges then were read

But no-one really knew for sure

Who rendered barry prossits dead

Barry prossit dead

The verdict came as no great shock

To those who knew the score

And behind that prison walls that night

There was an angry roar

But life goes on as normal

In all the british nicks

Cos after all what can you say

To men who carry sticks
