Iron Mask
Oliver Twist
An orphan English boy
So fragile and so young
A life of poverty
He stayed in a workhouse since he's born
No comforts and no food
He had to beg for more
The beadle was no good man
And gave the kid away
He had to face their hate
He had to face their violence

But one day he striked back
And escaped for London
To meet his destiny

[Chorus]
Oliver Twist, innocent lad
There's only one way to survive
Oliver Twist, you might get smashed
You have to struggle for your life
Oliver Twist, don't cross the line
There's only one step to the crime
Oliver Twist, better watch out
Child of the street, keep up the fight
Oliver Twist's always on the run
Oliver Twist's always on the run
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
So naive, full of hopes
He met honest folks
Then he lived with Fagin
And his gang at Saffron Hill
In the pickpockets lair
Ensnared he had to steal
Again mistreated
He had to obey or he'll be killed
Surrounded by evil souls
Just one man believed him as his son
Fagin was arrested
Condemned to the gallows
The kid found his family

[Chorus]
Oliver Twist, innocent lad
There's only one way to survive
Oliver Twist, you might get smashed
You have to struggle for your life
Oliver Twist, don't cross the line
There's only one step to the crime
Oliver Twist, better watch out
Child of the street, keep up the fight
Oliver Twist's always on the run
Oliver Twist's always on the run
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
