Twinkle Toes - Ben Miller Band

Well, I don’t need no shackles on my twinkle toes

I don’t need no irons on my feet

And I don’t need no shackles on my twinkle toes

I don’t need no irons on my feet

Well, if I die while I’m up here in prison

They will bury me inside these walls

And around my tombstone they’ll wrap their rounds of razor wire

So my soul can’t go back home to God

Well, I don’t need no shackles on my twinkle toes

I don’t need no irons on my feet

And I don’t need no shackles on my twinkle toes

I don’t need no irons on my feet

Well, there’s no mercy past the gates of entry

Guards got hearts that’ll turn to solid stone

Oh, how can someone with a gun and billy club

Kill some boy who’s just trying to get back hom

Well, there’s som evil people here in prison

Oh, pedophiles and murderers and thieves

But mostly though it’s just petty drug offenders

Who are trapped like lambs in the jaws of wolves like these

Oh, St. Peter and Gideon and Gabriel

Strike that note you struck in Jericho

Let the horns of heaven wreck the walls of prison

And tell those assholes to let my people go

Well, I don’t need no shackles on my twinkle toes

I don’t need no irons on my feet

And I don’t need no shackles on my twinkle toes

I don’t need no irons on my feet
