Last night I heard the screaming
Loud (1)____________ behind the wall
Another sleepless night for me
It won't 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 (2)__________________ night for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always come late
If (3)________ (4)________ at all

And when they arrive
they say they can't interfere
With domestic affairs
Between a man and his wife
And as they walk out the door
The tears (5)________ up in her eyes

Last night I heard the screaming
Then a silence that (6)______________ my soul
Prayed (7)________ I was dreaming
When I saw the ambulance in the road

And the policeman said
'I'm here to keep the peace
Will the crowd disperse
I (8)__________ we all could use (9)________ sleep'

Last night I heard the screaming
Loud voices behind the wall
Another sleepless night for me
It won't do no good to call
The police
Always come late
If they (10)________ at all
