The Police And The Private
Lyrics 
Get straight and wait here while I try to find the exit sign
When will you stop asking strangers, no one wants what we want
Keep one eye on the door, keep one eye on the bag
Never expect to be sure

Get straight and wait here while I try to find the exit sign

Fingerprinted waiting for the train
Publisher: CHRYSALIS SONGS
Keep one eye on the door, keep one eye on the bed
My friend is coming clean, she told me
Lord, Lord mother, we are all losing love
Songwriters: Emily Haines, James Shaw
The whole world wants what we're on
The pirates, the pilots
You're working for the police, the private
Fingerprinted waiting for the train
Lord, listen lover, we are all missing mama
Lord, Lord mother, we are all losing love
Lord, listen lover, we are all missing mama
Lord, Lord mother, we are all losing love
Didn't make this up, I learned, I learned it from a friend
You're working for the police, the private
The doctor, the writer, the garbage collector
Lord, listen lover, we are all missing something I don't got
The doctor, the writer, the hairdresser
I'm so tired of never sleeping
Felt up and fingerprinted waiting for the train
Lord, Lord mother, we are all losing love
Keep one eye on the door, keep one eye on the bag
When will you stop asking strangers, no one wants what we want
Get straight and wait here while I try to find the exit sign
Never expect to be sure
Lord, listen lover, we are all missing mama
There's a place that ends here I know
Lord, listen lover, we are all missing mama
Fingerprinted waiting for the train
When they close the gates I'll cry
Never expect to be sure who you're working for
Lord, listen lover, we are all missing love
Lord, Lord mother, we are all losing love
The orphanage is closing in an hour
Lord, Lord mother, we are all losing love
Got to get out, got to get to you
The pirates and pilots
