Shot Down In The Night Lyrics - This Is Hawkwind, Do Not Panic - Hawkwind

Numbers called as they're waiting in a line 

Camouflaged like a jungle snake 

Acting tough, just enough 

'til they start to break 

Then they're off with a rush of adrenalin 

Holding on to a world unseen 

the only sound is the pumping of the great machine 

[chorus:] 

The secret's only for a few 

Superpower looks down on you 

Someone's watching every move 

You can break the lock and turn on the light? 

You know your danger feelings are right 

Try to run or put up a fight 

You'll be shot down in the night 

Shot down like an animal

Can You Guess The Song By The Emojis? 

Linkin Park Honors Chester Bennington In The Emotional Video For 'One More Light' 

Watch Beck's Heroic New Music Video For 'Up All Night' 

See them run like rats from the factory 

Push them out to the twilight zone 

Let them feed on their needs 

'til they're overthrown 

Take them up to a place in the gallery 

Show them God with an angel face 

Curtain call for the fall 

Of the Human race 

Photos 

Play it straight and it seems like a mystery 

Tell the truth and it sounds like lies 

Looking down at the ground 

With your angry eyes 

Play the game and you'll see there's a difference 

Join the ranks and you'll get your kicks 

See the world, and the girls, and the dirty tricks
