Lyrics of a song Graham Parker - Protection

Capo at 2 (intro D Em G Em D 

Em          G            G             C              

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

Am                         C             D

So Winston Churchill said I could have smacked his head

Em           G               G         C              

And all of those infected waiting to be collected

Am                            C                 D

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

 

CHORUS

Em              C               G     D        

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

Em              C               G     D        

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

Em              C               G   D             G      C

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

G        C    G     C      D

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

 

REPEAT CHORUS Then Em/G Am/C which repeats over BRIDGE

 

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

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

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

I know you've been mixing with Big Brother's brother

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

                                    Em             Em

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

 

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

 

CHORUS Then this rhythm again  Em/G Am/C 

 

Turn off all the information radios just pick up that station

Protection 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 protection Switch it off switch it off switch it off

Protection Switch it off switch it off switch it off

Protection protection You want to hide? You want to hide?

You want to hide, hide, hide? Protection REPEAT AND FADE
