KINKS - Dead End Street lyrics

rate me

There's a crack up in the ceiling,<br>And the kitchen sink is leaking.<br>Out of work and got no money,<br>A sunday joint of bread and honey.<br><br>What are we living for? <br>Two-roomed apartment on the second floor.<br>No money coming in,<br>The rent collector's knocking, trying to get in.<br><br>We are strictly second class,<br>We don't understand,<br>(dead end!)<br>Why we should be on dead end street.<br>(dead end!)<br>People are living on dead end street.<br>(dead end!)<br>Gonna die on dead end street.<br><br>Dead end street (yeah)<br>Dead end street (yeah)<br><br>On a cold and frosty morning,<br>Wipe my eyes and stop me yawning.<br>And my feet are nearly frozen,<br>Boil the tea and put some toast on.<br><br>What are we living for? <br>Two-roomed apartment on the second floor.<br>No chance to emigrate,<br>I'm deep in debt and now it's much too late.<br><br>We both want to work so hard,<br>We can't get the chance,<br>(dead end!)<br>People live on dead end street.<br>(dead end!)<br>People are dying on dead end street.<br>(dead end!)<br>Gonna die on dead end street.<br><br>Dead end street (yeah)<br>Dead end street (yeah)<br><br>(dead end!)<br>People live on dead end street.<br>(dead end!)<br>People are dying on dead end street.<br>(dead end!)<br>Gonna die on dead end street.<br><br>Dead end street (yeah)<br>Dead end street (yeah)<br>Dead end street (yeah)<br>Head to my feet (yeah)<br>Dead end street (yeah)<br>Dead end street (yeah)<br>Dead end street (yeah)<br>How's it feel? (yeah)<br>How's it feel? (yeah)<br>Dead end street (yeah)<br>Dead end street (yeah)
