UB 40 lyrics - Watchdogs

album: The Very Best of UB40 (2000)
album: Rat In The Kitchen (1986)
genre: 

You try to close your ears 
And you try to close your eyes 
But the blasphemies keep coming 
And tempting you with lies 

Chorus: 
Give thanks for your protection 
Your watchdogs of the night 
Who hold the hungry wolves at bay 
And keep them out of sight out of sight 

you just dont understand it 
well it strikes a distant chord 
so you look for a way of escaping 
and sanity is restored 

Chorus x1 

You focus your direction 
Cloak tightly pulled around 
But somewhere in the distance 
You can hear a haunting sound 

Chorus 2x 

You're in danger of corruption 
And you're always running scared 
You cannot make decisions 
You're completely unprepared 

Chorus x1
