Jackie Lomax - The Hole Thing
Born into bondage
Born in a shell, well
You became a prisoner
At the birth of your first cell
Born like a immigrant
Born away from home
Tell me what was the stimulant
Kept you feeling so alone
Weâ??re all here together, brother
Weâ??re all in the hole
Letâ??s just get together, brother
And give this place weâ??re living in
Just a bit more soul
Born to the physical
Strapped to just one mind
What was that spectacle
The sight that made you blind
Born in a mystery
Thereâ??s been no answer found
Just what the future is to be
There is no common ground
Weâ??re all here together, brother
Weâ??re all in control
Letâ??s just get together, brother
And give this place weâ??re living in
Just a bit more soul
Born in a city
My sky is always grey
Mother have some pity
Your son has gone astray
Iâ??m born with a question
Who will answer mine?
If you find the best one
Wonâ??t you ease my troubled mind?
Weâ??re all here together, brother
Weâ??re all in the hole
Letâ??s just get together, brother
And give this place weâ??re living in
Just a bit more soul
Born in a shell, well
You became a prisoner
At the birth of your first cell
Born like a immigrant
Born away from home
Tell me what was the stimulant
Kept you feeling so alone
Weâ??re all here together, brother
Weâ??re all in the hole
Letâ??s just get together, brother
And give this place weâ??re living in
Just a bit more soul
Born to the physical
Strapped to just one mind
What was that spectacle
The sight that made you blind
Born in a mystery
Thereâ??s been no answer found
Just what the future is to be
There is no common ground
Weâ??re all here together, brother
Weâ??re all in control
Letâ??s just get together, brother
And give this place weâ??re living in
Just a bit more soul
Born in a city
My sky is always grey
