Intro:
D Em G Em D

Verse 1:
Em          D            G             C
So all of you be damned we can't have heaven crammed
Am                        C             G          D
So Winston Churchill said I could have smacked his head
Em         D              G          C
And all of those infected waiting to be collected
Am                           C                  G         D
I must get out at any price before the feeling gets too nice

CHORUS:
Em              C              G     D
Just can't get, just can't get no protection
Em              C               G    D
Just can't get, just can't get no protection
Em              C              G   D           C      D

Protection, protection

Verse 2:
E              D        G                C
Every bomb is detonated every switch is thrown
Am                                      C            G      D
And everybody tells me don't be scared act as if you never cared
Em          D                G             C
So I wear a blank expression to conceal my real impression
Am                            C                G        D
Turn off all the information radios just pick up that station


CHORUS:
Em              C              G      D
Just can't get, just can't get no protection

Just can't get, just can't get no protection
Em              C              G   D            C      D
Just can't get, just can't get no Can't get no protection
G       C    G    C      G
Protection, protection

Verse 3:
Em                     G
So turn off this sound I'm ready to go down
Am                    C
I don't know myself, I don't know you either
Em                     G
You're full of disease it's something I discovered
Am                        C
I know you've been mixing with Big Brother's brother
 Em                             G
It ain't the knife in the heart that tears you apart
Am                       C
It's just the thought of someone
Am                       C
It's just the thought of someone
 Am                      C        Em         G    Em         G
It's just the thought of someone sticking it in, sticking it in

Verse 4:
Em        D                  G               C
So if you think that's funny I'm not really laughing honey
Am                             C                   G          D
Your love letters are confetti I ripped them up my hands were sweaty
Em              D             G         C
And then those ghastly faces recur in nightmare places
Am                         C                 G        D
Happy hours come and gone much too short and much too long


CHORUS:
Em              C              G      D
Just can't get, just can't get no protection
Em              C               G      D
Just can't get, just can't get no protection
Em              C              G   D           C      D
Just can't get, just can't get no Can't get no protection
G      C    G    C      D
Protection, protection

Verse 5:
Em                           C                G        D
Turn off all the information radios just pick up that station
G       C    G      C  G     C   D
Protection protection protection
Em                              G
It ain't the knife in the heart that tears you apart
Am                        C       Em         G
It's just the thought of someone sticking it in
G        C  G      C
Protection protection Switch it off switch it off switch it off
C
Protection Switch it off switch it off switch it off
C

C
You want to hide, hide, hide? Protection REPEAT AND FADE
