For any interested, here are the lyrics to “Trapped” by Jimmy Cliff (via Bruce Springsteen), that I referenced this morning.
Well it seems like I’m caught up in your trap again
And it seems like I’ll be wearing the same old chains
Good will conquer evil, and the truth will set you free
And I know someday I’ll find a key
Yeah I know somewhere I’ll find a key
Well it seems like I’ve been playing your game way too long
And it seems the game I’ve played has made you strong
But when the game is over, I walk out a loser
And I know someday I’ll walk out of here again
Someway I’ll walk out of here again
But now I’m trapped…
Well it seems like I’ve been sleeping in your bed too long
And it seems like you’ve been meaning to do me harm
But I’ll teach my eyes to see beyond these walls in front of me
And someday I’ll walk out of here again
Someday I’ll walk out of here again
But now I’m trapped…
<take it away, Clarence “Big Man” Clemmons>
Well it seems like I’ve been playing your game way too long
And it seems the game I’ve played has made you strong
Cuz now I’m trapped…
