ROLLING STONES - UNDERCOVER OF THE NIGHT


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 disparus
Lost in the jails of South America
Cuddle by baby
Cuddle up tight
Cuddle up baby
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover, Undercover
Undercover of the night

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

Cuddle up baby
Keep it all out of sight
Cuddle up now honey
Sleep with all out of sight

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

Keep it undercover
Keep it out of sight
Keep it undercover
Cuddle up real tight
Undercover
Undercover
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. Joe's
On R&R from Cuba and Russia
The smell of sex
The smell of suicide
All these things I just can't keep inside

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

Undercover
Undercover...
