Skrewdriver - Prisoner of Peace lyrics

Your rating:


He stuck up for his country, but he didn't like the cost

The European brother war, and lives were being lost

He saw the grieving mothers whose sons could not be found

He wanted peace to stop the endless coffins on the ground





He got up on one morning and he went out to his plane

He said good-bye to his wife, but doubts were in his brain

To sue for peace was his idea in 1941

But the bankers' grip was oh so tight, and the chance for peace was gone





Chorus:

Free Rudolf Hess

How long can they keep him there? We can only guess

I said free Rudolf Hess

How long can they keep him there? We can only guess





He never realized that day that chivalry had died

Britain was in alien hands but at least a man had tried

Forty years is a long long time in a prison cell to be

And I feel ashamed at the sentence passed on a man who wanted peace





(Repeat Chorus)





And now the situation has changed in many ways

The Allies want to let him go, they've decided he has paid

The Red scum in the Kremlin with their kosher values try

To keep a proud man locked away until the day he dies





(Repeat Chorus)





He's a prisoner of peace

Kept there at the will of the Marxists in the east

He's a prisoner of peace

Kept there at the wishes of the Marxists in the east
