Oliver Twist - Iron Mask

An orphan English boy

So fragile and so young

A life of poverty

He stayed in a workhouse since he’s born

No comforts and no food

He had to beg for more

The beadle was no good man

And gave the kid away

He had to face their hate

He had to face their violence

But one day he striked back

And escaped for London

To meet his destiny

Oliver Twist, innocent lad

There’s only one way to survive

Oliver Twist, you might get smashed

You have to struggle for your life

Oliver Twist, don’t cross the line

There’s only one step to the crime

Oliver Twist, better watch out

Child of the street, keep up the fight

Oliver Twist’s always on the run

Oliver Twist’s always on the run

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

So naive, full of hopes

He met honest folks

Then he lived with Fagin

And his gang at Saffron Hill

In the pickpockets lair

Ensnared he had to steal

Again mistreated

He had to obey or he’ll be killed

Surrounded by evil souls

Just one man believed him as his son

Fagin was arrested

Condemned to the gallows

The kid found his family

Oliver Twist, innocent lad

There’s only one way to survive

Oliver Twist, you might get smashed

You have to struggle for your life

Oliver Twist, don’t cross the line

There’s only one step to the crime

Oliver Twist, better watch out

Child of the street, keep up the fight

Oliver Twist’s always on the run

Oliver Twist’s always on the run

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
