I’d like to get out but the lift doesn’t work
And my knees are too weak for the stairs
I meant to get out but the telly keeps telling me
People like me should be scared
I was going to get out but the place that I’d go to
Has signs saying ‘closed’ on the door
I’d still have got out but the lady who went with me
Doesn’t come round any more
I would have gone out but my friend had a fall
Now he’s broken and plastered and wired
I’d love to get out but there aren’t any benches
To sit on if I’m feeling tired
I’ll tell all those well-wishers what it’s about
If you’ll come here and help me break out
