I Helped Patrick McGoohan Escape Lyrics

Once long ago
Lived a man
Who made a TV show,
Spent all his savings, every penny
So that we would know,
But this poor man had few friends
And his boss wouldn't pay him.
So I thought up a way
For him to escape.

I helped Patrick McGoohan escape.
Now he's hiding from the human race.
Yes he is.
Yes he is.
Oooooooh!

We made sure that the rovers
Were fast asleep,
And Number Two was ____, too,
Making up plans to kidnap Paul McCartney.
We took a bus, we took a boat,
And finally we took a train,
And ran away to the U.S.A.
That's where he's been until this day.
I helped Patrick McGoohan escape.
He lives next door to the Man in a Suitcase.
Yes he does.
Yes he does.

(Where am I?)
(In the Village.)
(What do you want?)
(Information.)
(You won't get it.)
(By hook or by crook, we will.)
(Who's side are you on?)
(That would be telling.)
(Who are you?)
(The new Number Two.)
(Who is Number One?)
(You are Number Six.)
(I am not a number. I am a free man.)
(Hahahahahahaha...)
(I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed, or numbered.)
(Hahahahahahaha...)
(...pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed, or numbered.)
(Hahahahahahaha...)
(My life is my own.)
(Hahahahahahaha...)
(I-- I-- I-- I-- I-- I-- I-- I-- I--)
I helped Patrick McGoohan escape.
Now he's hiding from the human race.
I helped Patrick McGoohan escape.
He lives next door to the Man in a Suitcase.

(Thank you.)
