Undercover of the Night Lyrics

Hear the screams from Center 42
Loud enough to bust your brains out
The opposition's tongue is cut in two
Keep off the street, 'cause you're in danger

One hundred thousand disparos
Lost in the jails in South America
Curl up, baby
Curl up tight
Curl up, baby
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover of the night

The sex police are out there on the streets
Make sure the past laws are not broken
The race militia has got itchy fingers
All the way from New York back to Africa

Curl up, baby
Keep it all out of sight
Curl up, baby
Sleep with all out of sight

Curl up, baby
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover
Undercover
Undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover of the night

All the young men they've been rounded up
Sent to camps back in the jungle
And people whisper, people double-talk
At once their fathers act so humble
All the young girls they have got the blues
They're heading on back to Center 42

Keep it undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Keep it undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover
Keep it out of sight
Undercover of the night

Down in the bars, the girls are painted blue
Done up in lace, done up in rubber
The john's are jerky little G.I. Joes
On R&R from Cuba and Russia
The smell of sex
The smell of suicide
All these dream things I can't keep inside

Undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover of the night

Undercover of the night
Undercover of the night
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Undercover, undercover, undercover of the night
