WISHBONE ASH - Kicks on The Street lyrics

rate me

The wind was howling

Dogs were sleeping

I had to bite my tongue.

Looking down the street

I was hanging on

Eighty floors above the ground

Suffering vertigo.

Got me a date with a drug store blond

With a cure I know

She picks me up when I'm coming down.

Kicks on the street

It's a shot in the arm.

Get your kicks on the street

Can't do any harm.

Can't put me on a drip feed

Under state control.

I put a razor to my face

And the steel is cold.

It ain't going to take me too long before I get revived.

I'm traveling incognito

Don't want to be identified.

They dress you up

They strip you down.

Ain't going to find me falling asleep behind the driver's wheel.

You get me intoxicated

That's the way I feel.

I can't break the ice

Shrinks in the heat

Falling like an acrobat and landing on my feet.

She picks me up when I'm coming down.
