Tekst piosenki 'Street Life' wykonawcy Morrissey

Wish everybody would leave me alone, yeah
They're always calling on the telephone
When I pick it up there's nobody there
So I walk outside just to take the air

Come on with me cruising down the street
Who knows what you'll see, who you might meet
This brave new world is not like yesterday
It can take you higher than the Milky Way

Now I'm blinded I can't really see
No more bright lights confusing me, no
Don't ask me why I'm feeling blue
Because loving you is all I can do

Hey good-looking boys, gather around
The sidewalk paper gutter-press you down
All those lies can be so unkind
They can make you feel like you're losing your mind

Street life
Street life
Street life
That's the life

Street life
Street life
Street life
That's the life

Back to nature boys, Vasser girls too
Watch what you say, or think, or do
Continental-style strasse girls might
But you know exactly if it's wrong or right
Education is an important key, yes

But the good life's never won by degrees, no
This pointless passing through Harvard or Yale
Only window shopping, it's strictly no sale
The weekend starts Friday soon after eight
Your jet black magic helps you celebrate
You may be stranded if you stick around
And that's really something!
