The Streets Where I'm Living Songtext

von Mr. Review

In the street where I'm living
I feel there's something in the air
A tension is getting steadily stronger
My sences tell me better take care

This is the street where I'm living
Here I was born and played as a child
In this street no one ever bothered
About skin coloured black or white

You may pretend you haven't seen
You may pretend you haven't heard
But the day they proudly fly their flag
Oh, you damn well know that people get hurt

Now there is a voice from the shadow
Safe from where it can not be seen
Its inflammatory words hit target
Untill division takes command of this street

This is the street where I'm living
Where I was born and played as a child
This is the street where I'm living
See how the dark clouds gather in the sky

There's a riot, I see fear on the faces
While sirens scream and people run by
The street where I'm living
Is on TV cause there's a house on fire
