Midnight on Lafayette Park

[Verse 1]
Calling in the National Guard
Everybody better play their part
You play a fist and I'll play a heart
Beating along in the dark

[Chorus]
Midnight on Lafayette Park
You were holding your hand in mine
I was holding back my eyes from crying
Midnight on Lafayette Park

[Verse 2]
Calling all the president's dogs
Black bulletproof motorcades
Teargas bombs and flash grenades
Popping right in your face

[Chorus]
Midnight on Lafayette Park
What a very weird place to be
Wishing it was only you and me

Midnight on Lafayette Park
I was holding your hand in mine
Holding back my eyes from crying
Midnight on Lafayette Park
On Lafayette Park
On Lafayette Park
