Undercover by Destroy Babylon Lyrics
Under cover of night
Darkness gave him a fright
Although he heard her plea
Fear grips him completely
This isn’t the first time
Defense became a crime
With just a drink in hand
Prejudice took a stand
We have a long long way
We have a long, long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
A night out on the town
Quickly turns upside down
Coming out of a bar
Prejudice wants to spar
Because he favors men
Others believe he sins
Beaten and brutalized
Bigotry takes more lives
We have a long long way
We have a long long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
We have a long long way
We have a long long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
So civilized
That we keep destroying lives
Justice won't be found
When ignorance holds its ground
Ignorance holds its ground
Yes we think we've come so far
But we still don't know where we are
Now it's time to find our way
Our message will be heard
Cuz we're battling the absurd
Raise your voices with me and say
We have a long, long way
We have a long, long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
We have a long, long way
We have a long, long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
So civilized
That we keep destroying lives
Justice won't be found
When ignorance holds its ground
Ignorance holds its ground
Darkness gave him a fright
Although he heard her plea
Fear grips him completely
This isn’t the first time
Defense became a crime
With just a drink in hand
Prejudice took a stand
We have a long long way
We have a long, long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
A night out on the town
Quickly turns upside down
Coming out of a bar
Prejudice wants to spar
Because he favors men
Others believe he sins
Beaten and brutalized
Bigotry takes more lives
We have a long long way
We have a long long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
We have a long long way
We have a long long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
So civilized
That we keep destroying lives
Justice won't be found
When ignorance holds its ground
Ignorance holds its ground
Yes we think we've come so far
But we still don't know where we are
Now it's time to find our way
Our message will be heard
Cuz we're battling the absurd
Raise your voices with me and say
We have a long, long way
We have a long, long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
We have a long, long way
We have a long, long way to go
Is this your brighter day?
So civilized
That we keep destroying lives
Justice won't be found
When ignorance holds its ground
Ignorance holds its ground
