Nightline
Nightline Revelations: Unmasking Hidden Truths in John Martyn's Melodic Tapestry
Lyrics
Watch out, watch watch out
Warning to be cautious and alert
They got frozen faces
People with emotionless expressions
They live in broken rooms
Living in dysfunctional or troubled environments
They got the strangest of places
Strange and uncomfortable situations
In the dark and the gloom
In darkness and obscurity
Watch your mouth boy watch your every word
Caution to be mindful of speech
We're coming for you
A threat or impending action
Don't say you have not heard
Urging awareness of the impending situation
Watch out, watch out the law's about
Warning about the presence of the law
Watch out, cover that door
Protecting oneself by covering a door
Watch out, watch out the law's about
Reiteration of the warning about the law
Watch out, what's your freedom for?
Questioning the purpose of freedom
Tell it to the nightline
Advice to share information with the media
Tell it before they lose their minds
Speak out before societal collapse
Tell it to the nightline
Repetition of the advice to communicate with the media
Tell those people why
Specify reasons for actions to the public
Your mama's crying and your daddy's sad
Parents upset due to deception
They know your lying
Accusation of dishonesty
And they know you've been had
Recognition of being deceived
Watch out, watch out the law's about
Reiteration of the warning about the law
Watch out, cover that door
Emphasizing protection by covering a door
Watch out, watch out the law's about
Repetition of the warning about the law
Watch out, what's your freedom for?
Questioning the purpose of freedom again
Tell it on the nightline
Encouragement to share information with the media
Tell it before you lose your mind
Emphasis on speaking out before losing sanity
Tell it on the nightline
Repetition of the advice to communicate with the media
Tell those people why
Specify reasons for actions to the public again
Is there love for sale?
Questioning the authenticity of love
Is there love for sale?
Repeating the question about the availability of love
We got safety catches but the safety kills
Caution about safety measures causing harm
We got safety matches we got gasoline spills
Mention of dangerous materials and situations
Talk straight, don't try to lie to me
Encouragement to be honest and direct
Talk straight, look me in the eye
Direct request for eye contact and truthfulness
Talk straight, don't try to lie to me
Reiteration of the need for honesty
Talk straight, tell these people why
Encouragement to reveal reasons to the public
Tell it to the nightline
Advising to share information with the media
Tell it before they lose their minds
Warning to communicate before societal collapse
Tell it to the nightline
Repetition of the advice to communicate with the media
Tell these people why
Specify reasons for actions to the public again
Is there love for sale?
Questioning the authenticity of love once more
Is there love for sale?
Repeating the question about the availability of love
Is there love for sale, I'm buying
Expressing willingness to buy love
It's love for sale, I'm trying
Indicating efforts to obtain love
Is there love for sale
Repeating the question about the availability of love
