about

A song written for the Prisons Phoenix Trust, a charity teaching meditation and yoga in prisons.

For you Septics, "bird" is rhyming slang for "time" (bird-lime).

lyrics

Mrs. Bride

I got your picture in my cell, Mrs. Bride
You’re looking well and your arms are held out wide
You’ve got red eye in the lens
Your smile says, “That depends!”
And I can’t remember now why you died.

I breathe out…… I breathe in (x2)
That’s how I do my bird.

Fagends, sweat and strange perfumed smells
The clangs on the landings, echoed yells
Guys buzz round being manic
To cover up their panic
At night the landing fills with ghosts of girls

I breathe out…… I breathe in (x2)
That’s how I do my bird.

There are cons here who are searching, on a mission
They read prophecy, philosophy, religion
Their heads full of ideas
Hectic stuff and weird
Some see evil, some see angel visions

I breathe out…… I breathe in (x2)
That’s how I do my bird.

I got angry and the anger poisoned me
Every man is angry in Gartree
But I breathe in the still
And breathe out the dark
Banged up in my cell I know I’m free
Banged up in my cell I know I’m free

I breathe out…… I breathe in (x2)
That’s how I do my bird.
