News break on the radio
there's a helicoptor raid
we've got a kidnap victim on our hands
The reason why is so unclear

afternoon - filled with fear
Brixton bound, open prison yard

Cause there's a jailbreak in Brixton
you know this gang must be found
there's a code red, alive or dead
one of our boys is out.....

He has broken out so the newspapers say
"we've gotta stop these boys their dangerous"
Public enemy number one
the nation hides - their on the run
living life full to the end

[Chorus]

Fast approach comes the end
betrayed by a very good friend
back to a cell with walls that have no time
year have passed he's done his time
there's no reason that we can find
nows the time to let him go
