Street to lean on
Bag lady's complaininTo the cop on the beatShe says she's got nowhere to goShe got nothin' to eatCop says, "Lady, have youconsidered a life of crime? You know you can eat real good when you'redoin' time"And she has got no galleriaShe's got no mallAll she's got is the street to lean onAnd the gutter when she fallsDo you see them gang bangers?They gonna have a fightThey gonna knock somebody's teeth outMaybe put out somebody's lightsWe're gonna have to bust themPut 'em all away in jailYou know, it's the nineteenth time this monthAin't gonna be no bailAnd they got no galleriaThey got no mallAll they got is the street to lean onSongtexteAnd the gutter when they fallFat lady with the wig onShe's down here buyin' antiquesShe says, "Can't you control these kids?They're actin' like a bunch of freaks."And the kids are givin' her the fingerThey re talkin 'bout takin' her purseThe street keeps gettin' hotterThe traffic keeps gettin' worseAnd they got no galleriaThey got no mallAll they got is the street to lean onAnd the gutter when they fallDo you see that politician?Don't he look sincereYou know he will promise you anythingAs long as he's down hereHe's gonna go home to the valleyTo his house and lawnAnd we will still be hereWhen he is goneAnd we got no galleriaWe got no mallAll we got is the street to lean onAnd the gutter when we fallAll we got is the street to lean onAnd the gutter.
