Street Kids
I've got the demeanor of a damsel
But I'm a lot meaner than I look
And I'm with you and you're smiling
But it was someone else's grin that you took
Lost my cash in a bet
And you spent your last check
On a false hope floozy at the bar
You've been begging on the corner
I've been asking
But darling
I think they know who we are.
We're sized up street kids
Running out of parlor tricks
Low down dead weights
Trying to keep our stories straight
They know
They know
They know
They know who we are
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
Now halfway across the country
Nothing in life is free
Now you're trying to steal some fool's cash
And I'd ask what that's all about
But I just got a five-finger discount
I think we'd better leave fast
Cause we're sized up street kids
Running out of parlor tricks
Low down dead weights
Trying to keep our stories straight
They know
They know
They know
They know who we are
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
Sized up street kids
Running out of parlor tricks
Low down dead weights
Trying to keep our stories straight
They know
They know
They know
They know who we are
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
But I'm a lot meaner than I look
And I'm with you and you're smiling
But it was someone else's grin that you took
Lost my cash in a bet
And you spent your last check
On a false hope floozy at the bar
You've been begging on the corner
I've been asking
But darling
I think they know who we are.
We're sized up street kids
Running out of parlor tricks
Low down dead weights
Trying to keep our stories straight
They know
They know
They know
They know who we are
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
Now halfway across the country
Nothing in life is free
Now you're trying to steal some fool's cash
And I'd ask what that's all about
But I just got a five-finger discount
I think we'd better leave fast
Cause we're sized up street kids
Running out of parlor tricks
Low down dead weights
Trying to keep our stories straight
They know
They know
They know
They know who we are
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
Sized up street kids
Running out of parlor tricks
Low down dead weights
Trying to keep our stories straight
They know
They know
They know
They know who we are
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
We gotta get out of town
