| It was regular stuff like Perry and Thrust
|
| Ain’t out of the blue like we usually do
|
| So me and Angelo came around about seven
|
| With stars in our eyes from the press we were getting
|
| Suspect from headache, you know a great deal
|
| Your apathy fake but your parts are real
|
| More than a little by the time it went down
|
| I had crossed your path but you didn’t know how
|
| A record claimed star by the end of the week
|
| Set flames to the heat that’s all out in the street
|
| The problems and pain runs hand in hand
|
| When the mother of commerce ends up working for the band
|
| The streets is watching
|
| So keep on talking
|
| Your time is ticking down, down, down
|
| The streets is watching
|
| So keep on talking
|
| Your time is ticking down, down, down
|
| Let’s catch fishes
|
| Bombs make misses
|
| You get served like dishes
|
| Like the soft machine kisses your ass
|
| It’s not one iota or a comma or a quota

| A shot in the dark and after a thought

| A lark
|
| You hit the watermark but the thug didn’t bark
|
| Oh yeah, that’s the sound of the police
|
| They’re making the wave because your hand is greased
|
| Can’t put nobody on unless they’re wearing a thong

|
| Can’t define my wealth

| So, yo, go ask somebody else
|
| Yeah, the streets is watching
|
| Yeahn the streets is watching
|
| I said the streets are watching |
