Street Life
by: SuedeOoh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh, ooh ooh ooh
Check it out!
Street life into the night with the syncopated melodies
Street life look left look right you've got lips from a magazine
Cheap sound that comes from the underground communicates to everyone
Street life it's alright you get your tips from a popular song
It's the beat of the concrete street that you'll love for a million years
It's the sound that comes from underground
That's got you clapping, got you shaking your rears
Street life, ooh ooh ooh
Street life step to the mike with your sexual equality
Street life look left look right you've got the lips from a magazine
Cheap sound that comes from the underground
Is like a bass drum kicking along
Street life sweet life cheap life it's street life going on and on
To the beat of the concrete street you can live for a million years
The dumb sound that comes from underground
That's got you clapping, got you shaking your rears
Street life, ooh ooh ooh
It's all you know, it's all you see
It's all you follow, it's all you believe
Ooh ooh ooh
Move your feet to the concrete beat and you can live for a million years
To the sound that comes from underground
Clap your hands, get shaking your rears
Street life, ooh ooh ooh
Street life, ooh ooh ooh
