Break for the Street Lyrics

Over worked and underpaid
The husband carries on his trade.
Working hard nine to five,
A corporate example of the middle class staying alive.

Safe at home his lovely wife
With whom he shared a simple life.
Suddenly finds she's needing more,
Longing for the love that died so many years before.

She was seventeen, he was twenty one,
A virgin till the day that she was married young.
So incomplete, break for the street.
Oh, break for the street.
Oh, break for the street.

And so she runs into the night
Believing all that once was right.
Trying hard to understand
She finds herself collapsing in the arms of another man.

She was thirty six and he was twenty one
Before it began it was over and done.
So incomplete, break for the street.
Oh, break for the street.
Oh, break for the street.
Break for the street.

Oh, break for the street.
Oh, break for the street.
Oh, break for the street.
Oh, break for the street.
Break for it.
