Swansea Metropolitan University (Welsh: Prifysgol Fetropolitan Abertawe) is the former name of the university – based in Swansea, Wales, UK – which on 1 August 2013 merged with and became a constituent campus of the University of Wales Trinity Saint David.
Employing more than 500 staff and teaching over 6,000 students, the Swansea Metropolitan University grew out of the three former Swansea colleges of Art, Teacher Education, and Technology which were founded in 1853, 1872 and 1897 respectively and merged in 1976 to form a major centre for the delivery of vocational higher education.
For most of the 20th century there were - in addition to Swansea University - three separate further educational institutions serving the city of Swansea: the Swansea (Municipal) School of Art and Crafts (established in 1853); the Swansea College of Education (established in 1872) and Swansea Technical College (established in 1897).
During this time, the School of Art and Crafts, one of the oldest in Britain, was based on Alexandra Road not far from its present location at the bottom of Mount Pleasant Hill opposite Swansea Central Police Station.
Prison blues stand an issue,
even when our suits ain't blue
We got shade's downs on the daily,
shanks ooobs so vicious too.
Blue walls vocking down the cell block,
wooden skellots down the hall
What you gonna make my prison thicker, higha shal fo work
I lift the hema hema seven,
and let that fall upon the stove,
And let the shaly chones define me,
and build these walls I call my own
I got scars like holly mammoth,
and I don't seem to fit no more
Yet I wake myself each morning,
just prepare for what's in store
So tonight is cold as bullets,
so please walk up and down my tear,
Tell myself the end is coming soon, chase away fear,
That some fear got me drinking,
put these straps on down my arm,
Passing fear has been inside of me ever since I was born.
I lift the hema hema seven, a
nd let that fall upon the stove,
And let the shady shades define me, and build these walls
I call my own I got scars like holly mammoth,
and I don't seem to fit no more
Yet I wake myself each morning,
just prepare for what's in store...for me
Freedom is just a test of memory,
I lose more and more each day
Can't forgive the man aside me,
my tranquility is there
Every day is like every other
Every day is like every other
Every day is like every other
Every day is like..let me out of here
Let me out of here
Let me out of here
Let me out of here
Let me out of here
Let me out of here
Let me out of here
Ive run my rout in here They knocked me down in here
Let me out of here
Let me out of here
Let me out of here
Let me breath let me go now you want, you said so
Let me out of here
