Protection

Pulling on the clothes that never really fit

Hoping she can get away with it

Protection, protection

Standing on the pavement climbin' into cars

Hoping the face reflects the heart

Protection, protection

All right now

All right now

There's not a moment

That I'm not protective

Of you

Riding on a wave you juvenile crime

I wonder if you can get off in time

Or whether you'd want to

Protection

Where did you get that bruise on your face

You must have come home in a terrible state

Protection, protection

All right now

All right now

There's not a moment

That I'm not protective

Of you

There's not a moment

That I'm not affected

By you

Groping in the darkness

Reaching for your shoes

Nobody cares for a child

With your connections

Talking with the crew she's eager to impress

Selling us a line of emptiness

You're a tiny little girl

You're a tiny little girl

Protection

You're a tiny little girl

Protection

There's not a moment...
