Lyrics

[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
