Down on the streets,
I can hear the cars crash
I can hear the cool cats yelling
Hey yo! Look at me!
Down on the streets
I can hear the cars crash
I can hear the cool cats yelling
Hey yo! Look at me
It's a wonderful city
Even on its knees
Put on your jack boots, baby
I'll show you what I mean
It's a wonderful city
Even on its knees
Put on your jack boots, baby
I'll show you what I mean
These are the streets to paradise
This is the street of shame
This is the street that goes nowhere fast
This is a street without a name
Down on the streets
I can hear the blood boil
I can hear the blood boil
Down on the streets
Down on the streets
I can hear the blood boil
I can hear the blood boil
Down on the streets
I hear the voices
Half a million voices
They're angry voices
And one of them sounds like me
I hear the voices
Half a million voices
They're angry voices,
And one of them sounds like me.
These are the zones outside all zones
So be uncivilized and swift
You got to learn to protect yourself
You're all you've got
Consider it a gift
Down on the streets,
I can feel the mood swing
I can feel the mood swing
I feel the beat
Down on the streets,
I can feel the mood swing
I can feel the mood swing
I feel the beat
Down on the streets,
I can feel the mood swing
I can feel the mood swing
I feel the beat
Down on the streets
I can feel the mood swing
I can feel the mood swing
I feel the beat
Alright
Down on the streets,
I can hear the cars crash
I can hear the cars crash
I can hear the cool cats yelling
Hey yo! Look at me!
