It's all out on the streets today

but you,you've found a place to hide

too busy with the ratrace

you pass by on the other side

your's is the face of the brand new Britian

with blinkers on your eyes

find yourself position

and cling on for dear life

you're so frightened

everybody's so frightened.



The papers tell of rape and murder

everything that you want to hear

bad tidings on the radio

you find a way to name your fear

so you never pick up hitchhickers

never talk to strangers

believe the world outside your

bolted door is evil

you're so frightened

everybody's so frightened.



You are just a victim of your own bad dreams

while people,well we are the same as we've always been

but through the blindness in your eyes

for just one minute i see them shine -

love me..won't you love me

and they all turn away.



You never fight for anything

you always turn your face away

and you never get involved in trouble

let all evil have it's way

so as the girl screams in the street below

you turn up the television

perhaps you'll see it on the news

well,it's nothing to do with you

you're too frightened

everybody's so frightened

why is everybody so frightened?

everybody's so frightened
