In the houses of the holy
  To the middle of the mystic sea
  At the cradle of the world
  
  There's a black cat screaming
  And it's not even midnight, no
  At the cradle of the world
  
  CHORUS:
  They're screaming for 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
  
  Turn your back on the children
  Does it feel like it's colder
  In your corner of the world
  
  CHORUS:
  They're screaming for sanctuary
  They're screaming at you
  Lock up the wolves
  Lock up the wolves, ...
  
  Don't you let'em get away
  Lock up the wolves before you play
  Or it's over
  Lock up the wolves
  Don't you let'em get away
  Don't you let'em get away
  
  There's no back door to heaven
  Just a front door to hell, oh
  In this corner of the world
  
  Now if you turn your back on the children
  Don't you feel it getting colder
  In your corner of the world
  
  CHORUS:
  They're screaming for sanctuary
  They're screaming at you
  Lock up the wolves
  Lock up the wolves, ...
