Last night I heard the screaming
Loud voices behind the wall
Another sleeples night for me
It wont do no good to call the police
Always come late if they come at all

Last night I heard the screaming
Loud voices behind the wall
Another sleeples night for me
It wont do no good to call the police
Always come late if they come at all

And when they arrive, they say they cant interfere with domestic
Affairs between a man and his wife
And as they walked out the door
The tears were left in her eyes

Last night I heard the screaming
Loud voices behind the wall
I pray that I was dreaming when I saw the ambulance in the road
And the police man said Im here to keep the peace,
Would the crowd please disperse
I think we all could use some sleep
