The Wall - Live

There's a lot of strange men in cell block ten

But the strangest of em' all

Was a friend of mine who spent his time

Staring at the wall, staring at the wall

In his hand was a note that his gal had wrote

That it proves crime don't pay

Was the very same gal he robbed and stole for

Naming her wedding day, naming her wedding day

As he looked at the wall

So strong and tall

I could hear him softly curse

Nobody at all ever climbed that wall

But I'm gonna be the first, I'm gonna be the first

Then the warden walked by and said son don't try

I'd hate to see you fall

'Cause there is no doubt they'll carry you out

If you ever touch that wall, if you ever touch that wall

Well a years gone by since he made his try

But I can still recall

How hard he tried and the way he died

But he never made that wall, he never made that wall

There's never been a man ever shook this camp

But I knew a man who tried

The newspapers called it a jailbreak plan

But I know it was suicide, I know it was suicide.
