Story Behind the Song
We've become a nation of shut-ins, but at least we're safe. Yeah, right!!!
Those who sacrifice their freedoms for a bit of safety deserve neither, or something like that.
Lyrics
It isn't safe to go outdoors
There's no one who respects the laws
Drunk drivers, rip-off stores
Killers, theives, pimps and whores
Are all waiting for you
Don't go outside
Lock your doors and hide
Just watch TV
And let things be
You're feelin' safe, you feel secure
With a thousand dead-bolts on your door
But right outside they're wagin' war
You ain't really safe no more
Now are you babe???
Don't go outside
Lock your doors and hide
Just watch TV
And let things be
I can remember when you could walk the streets at night
Or stroll through the park and every thing would be alright
But now every stranger's face you see makes you feel up tight
You're not safe not even in broad daylight!!!
We're all free men that's what we're taught
But freedom's different than we thought
You can't go out, you might get caught
We're all prisoners living in our forts,
Now aren't we babe???
Don't go outside
Lock your doors and hide
Just watch TV
And let things be
(Repeat first verse)
