We All Prisoners

by Temple

We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners.

We're all leading lives that are ruled by the plop plop and fizz fizz.
And when I try to explain to her, she doesn't know where I is.
She thinks she's none of my business, but I know she really is,
So I sing

We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners.

I love to lover her night and day, but she can't see I am.
I try to make her dig the scene, but jelly just ain't jam.
And when I say I love her, she just couldn't give a yeah yeah yeah.

We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners.

I'm a prisoner. He's a prisoner. She's a prisoner. We all prisoners.
If you sing "We all prisoners," then you must be a prisoner too.
We all prisoners.

I am hip, and you are him, and I need love like mad.
And if I don'tly see her, then I'll strike you to be sad.
And if you go real soonby, then I'll beski mighty glad,
And I'll sing

We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners. (We're prisoners of love.)
We all prisoners.

Yeah yeah, We all pri-son-ers.

((Spoken at increasing rate:))
We all prisoners. We all prisoners. We all prisoners.
We all prisoners. We all prisoners. I'm a prisoner, yeah!
