Warsaw

Closing time is hours past

The buses and the trams suspended

Even drunks are off the streets

And call-girls' phones are disconnected

And they've shut the bakeries

They've boarded up the printing presses

An they've put on silencers

So you will never know how many

Were caught after curfew...

You know roadblocks ring the city's center

Night patrols are on the highways

Waiting at the exits and

Along the backroads in the country

And they've shut the dailies down

They've taken over all the networks

And they'll monitor the news

So you will never know how many

Were caught after the curfew...

Crowded buses will meet the dawn

The same old faces getting on

But look around

You'll see a few are gone

But don't you wonder out loud

'cause you don't know who could be in that crowd

just waiting for a comment you might make

only listening for a word said by mistake

and tomorrow night they'll be awake

and they'll fix it so you're

caught after the curfew

caught after the curfew at night...
