Protection

So all of you be damned, we can't have heaven crammed

So Winston Churchill said,"I could have smacked his head

And all of those infected waiting to be collected"

I must get out at any price before the feeling gets too nice

Just can't get, just can't get no protection

Just can't get, just can't get no protection

Just can't get, just can't get no, can't get no protection

Protection, protection

Every bomb is detonated, every switch is thrown

And everybody tells me don't be scared, act as if you never cared

So I wear a blank expression to conceal my real impression

Turn off all the information, radios just pick up that station

Just can't get, just can't get no protection

Just can't get, just can't get no protection

Just can't get, just can't get no, can't get no protection

Protection, protection

So turn off this sound, I'm ready to go down

I don't know myself, I don't know you either

You're full of disease, it's something I discovered

I know you've been mixing with big brother's brother

I say,"It ain't the knife in the heart that tears you apart

It's just the thought of someone, it's just the thought of someone

It's just the thought of someone sticking it in, sticking it in

So if you think that's funny I'm not really laughing honey

Your love letters are confetti, I ripped them up my hands were sweaty

And then those ghastly faces recur in nightmare places

Happy hours come and go much too short and much too long

Just can't get, just can't get no protection

Just can't get, just can't get no protection

Just can't get, just can't get no, can't get no protection

Protection, protection

Turn off all the information, radios just pick up that station

Protection, protection

It ain't the knife in the heart that tears you apart

It's just the thought of someone sticking it in

Protection, yeah protection

Switch it off, switch it off, switch it off

Switch, switch it off, switch it off, protection, yeah protection

You want to hide? You want to hide?

You want to hide, hide, hide, hide?

Protection, yeah protection, yeah protection

I can't get protection, I can't get protection

Wanna get protection, yeah protection
