I will survive (but he didn't)

1:
First you were in jail
You were kept inside
Doing anything from eighteen months
Right up to life
But your lawyers spent their nights
Proving how you did no wrong
And got you sprung
And now you've vanished on the run

Ch:
Will you come back?
I think we knew
That you'd vanish when we said we were deporting you
We should have put you in the dock
We should have thrown away the key
Cos now it seems you're in this country
Committing murder and robbery
