Protection

(Bruno Jardel/Peter Kingsbery/Dimitri Tikovoï)



What was blank space, here now lies someone

Well I know this face and where it comes from

Thanks for crying, drinks on me in your mother's eye

Talk of spitting imagery, we all need protection



How to forgive this restless sleeper

Each day we live, I'm breathing deeper

Think of me the other guy with the gravely voice

DJ of the lullaby, we all need protection



If I am Tarzan, this must be Jane's boy

Sweet as a lamb on his asteroid

Papers are in order, so it looks like you can stay

Though why make such an entrance in a loud abstrusive way

No one here is innocent, we all need protection.
