[Verse 1]
Hear the screams of Center 42
Loud enough to bust your brains out
The opposition's tongue is cut in two
Keep off the street 'cause you're in danger
One hundred thousand disparus
Lost in the jails in South America

[Chorus]
Cuddle up, baby
Cuddle up, tight
Cuddle up, baby
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover of the night

[Verse 2]
The sex police are out there on the streets
Make sure the pass laws are not broken
The race militia has got itchy fingers
All the way from New York back to Africa

[Chorus]
Cuddle up, baby
Keep it all out of sight
Cuddle up, baby
Keep it all out of sight
Cuddle up, baby
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover, undercover
Undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover of the night

[Verse 3]
All the young men, they've been rounded up
And sent to camps back in the jungle
And people whisper, people double-talk
And once proud fathers act so humble
All the young girls, they have got the blues
They're heading on back to Center 42

[Chorus]
Keep it undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Keep it undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover of the night

[Verse 4]
Down in the bars, the girls are painted blue
Done up in lace, done up in rubber
The John's are jerky little G.I. Joe's
On R&R from Cuba and Russia
The smell of sex, the smell of suicide
All these dream things I can't keep inside

[Chorus]
Undercover
Keep it all out of sight
Undercover of the night

[Outro]
Undercover of the night
Undercover of the night
Undercover, undercover
Undercover of the night

The Rolling Stones

Formed in London in 1962, The Rolling Stones led the “British Invasion” along with The Beatles and were so successful their influence can be seen in arguably every rock ‘n’ roll band that followed.

Three of the current members have been there since the band’s singer Mick Jagger and guitarist Keith Richards, who write the majority of the band’s catalogue and also produced some albums as The Glimmer Twins; and drummer Charlie Watts. The fourth official member is guitarist Ronnie Wood, who has been there since 1975 (the keyboardist and bassist who play in studio and live are usually not listed). The Stones have released more than 20 studio albums, and even as age caught up on them, continued to be a huge attraction on the live circuit, with big stadium tours continuing through the 1990s, 2000s and into the 2010s.
