Artist: UB40 Album: UB40 (1988) Title: Come Out To Play
Lyrics Come Out To PlayHe used to think that it was neat when they hung out on the street
Now that it's his daily beat, he's not so sure
Cause he's come to depend on a street with a dead end
And he'll sell you his best friend so he can score, some more
Boys and girls come out to play
The junk man's on the street to say
He'll make your dreams feel real today
And steal your minds tomorrow
Now his thoughts they seem so clear, his whole life is turned to fear
As heavy gas in air, he make a way
His girl can take the heat but his friends are on the same street
So the needle keeps him sweet then think again, one more day
Boys and girls come out to play
The junk man's on the street to say
He'll make your dreams feel real today
And steal your minds tomorrow
And his bones have got no meat, he's unsteady on his feet
And he doesn't get to eat, not every day
What started out for kicks has become a daily fix
And his girlfriend's turning tricks to pay his way
Boys and girls come out to play
The junk man's on the street to say
He'll make your dreams feel real today
And steal your minds tomorrow |
