Interlude/Chorus

Verse

Streetwalker knows how to strut right

She knows the truth

Bad boys walking through the corridor

God knows what they're gonna do.

Darkness paraded across the headlines:

'Little girl stolen from her bedroom,'

Homeless, beat to death, or put out

Hopeless... greedy and cruel.

Prechorus

Oh why can't I feel for you?

My heart is so black to you--

Oh--

Verse

Her head was spinning like a hurricane,

Tina was singing her name

Old men like to rape her in the red light

She's too young and numb to complain

Little boy bought at the age of six,

Down the street he's wearing a dress

Look at his face, you won't see no innocence

He's got so much experience

Prechorus

Oh why can't I feel for you?

They lie, what can I do?

Chorus

Oh Love, set me free!

Set me free!

Come on and set me free!

Oh Lord, set me free!

Set me free!

Come on and set me free!

Verse

Underground... the German Casanova

Underground... The Panamanian Queen

He whispers, "Down here, the law will never find you.

Down here I am your God and King"

It's a sin to sit and just do nothing,

There's a special place in hell for me

Oh God I just gotta do something

I swear to God this is happening--

Chorus

Oh Love, set me free!

Set me free!

Come on and set me free!

Oh Lord, set me free!

Set me free!

Oh, it could have been me.

Oh Lord, set them free!

Set them free!

It could have been me.
