Lock Up the Wolves

Lyrics

In the houses of the holy
 To the middle of the mystic sea
 At the cradle of the world
 Mmm-hmm, yeah
 ♪
 There's a black cat screaming
 And it's not even midnight, no
 At the cradle of the world
 They're screaming sanctuary
 They're screaming at you
 Lock up the wolves
 Lock up the wolves
 Yeah-yeah-yeah
 ♪
 Now there's a cloud over heaven
 And a pain out of paradise
 In your corner of the world
 Ah, turn your back on the children
 Does it feel like it's colder
 In your corner of the world?
 They're screaming sanctuary
 They're screaming at you
 Lock up the wolves
 Lock up the wolves
 Lock up the wolves
 ♪
 Lock up the wolves
 Don't you let them get away
 Lock up the wolves before you play, or it's over
 Lock up the wolves
 Now don't you let them get away
 Don't let them get away
 ♪
 There's no back door to heaven
 Just a front door to hell
 Oh-oh, in this corner of the world
 Now if you turn your back on the children
 Well, you'll feel it getting colder
 Ah, in your corner of the world
 They're screaming sanctuary
 They're screaming at you
 Help
 Lock up the wolves, yeah
 Lock up the wolves, lock 'em up
