They’ll shut you down and lock you out

In a modern jail you’ve built yourself

Dangerous streets, don’t go outside

It’s for your own good

‘It’s only temporary’

They’re deciding what to do

How they’ll ever keep us safe

Protect me from you

Shot upon sight after dark

Curfew

The coast is clear from 9 to 5

8 hours to feel half alive

Dangerous streets, don’t go outside

It’s for your own good

They’ve asked to see your papers

Constant armed patrols

This is how they’ll keep us safe

And watch what we do

Shot upon sight after dark

Curfew
