Don't go sleeping with the enemy
I know we said we'd be true
I know you're stranded in the forest if you don't
Abandoned if you do
So don't go sleeping with the enemy
If my imagination is getting ahead of me
Then let it be known that I can't make it alone
So get down and stay perfectly still
Bite down on your cyanide pill
There's things that you swore you'd never do
But you will with the enemy
Don't go sleeping with the enemy
Then everybody gets to be a hero
Can ya hear me, are you alive?
Do you know that there's a war?
Don't go sleeping with the enemy
Don't forget that we were comrades till the end
They only wanna make love but this is war
And the good guys always win
So don't kick while we're dragging you home
Quietly reciting your loyalty oath
Knife at your throat
Uncomfortably close to the enemy
Sleeping with the Enemy was written by Brad Petering.
