Lyrics
Uploaded bynct.phongdq
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
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
