When it gets dark outside
who can take the fall
after all the sunlight
well she can't win 'em all
kill the goddamn messenger
tie him to his chair
re-program him to see the truth
that's supposed to be there

When it gets dark outside
it's time to be afraid
duct tape all the windows
pull down all the shades
what you don't know won't hurt you baby...
what you do...best left unsaid
you'll come running when the boogey man
is found under you bed

glory be praise the lord
raise your voice on high
put your flag at half staff
just in case we need you to die
...it saves time

When it gets dark outside
and there's a check point dead ahead
I wish I was back home
with my wife and kids instead
nerve endings tingling
head gonna explode
how the hell did I get here
toting another man's load

glory be praise the lord
raise your voice on high
put your flag at half staff
just in case we need you to die
...it saves time

When it gets dark outside
who can take the fall
after all the sunlight
well she can't win 'em all
