protection - danny o'keefe lyrics
[verse 1]
nighttime walkin’ in this city
you get a bad case of the creeps
everybody is a target
paranoia never sleeps
[verse 2]
i’ve got a pistol in my pocket
don’t no one mess with me
i ain’t afraid to use it
you don’t know what you can’t see
[chorus]
protection, protection
no one’s safe who needs protection
life is cheaper in this section
makes you think you need protection
[verse 3]
every day i read the paper
wonderin’ what it’s all about
people live their lives like candles
’til someone snuffs ’em out
[verse 4]
i play the game sometimes
i feel just like the man
who gripped the wrong end of the razor
he knew he held the losin’ hand
[chorus]
protection, protection
no one’s safe who needs protection
life’s cheaper in this section
makes you think you need protection
[verse 5]
you get used to anything
you think is keepin’ you alive
i don’t really call it living
i’m just tryin’ to survive
[chorus]
protection, protection
no one’s safe who needs protection
life is cheaper in this section
makes you think you need protection
[outro]
oh yeah
everybody’s armed, oh yeah
’cause everyone’s alarmed
oh yeah
