HAWKWIND
"Back On The Street"
(Paul Rudolph)

I took a ride in an elevator
I was heading for the 99th floor
In less than just a split-second later
I was standing right outside of her door
She looked kinda mean on her video screen
And she said "Come in and please take a seat"

That's when I was
Back on the street
Back on the street
Back on the street again
Back on the street
Back on the street
Back on the street again

A businessman said "Sign this contract
To make you a supernova exploding star
The galaxies will shake with your impact
You'll make everything on Earth a bazaar
Just sign on this line and drink up your wine
The Universe is in for a treat"

That's when I was
Back on the street
Back on the street
Back on the street again
Back on the street
Back on the street
Back on the street again

Feel the concrete under my feet
I'm freer than a cheetah, man
Back on the street again

Back on the street
Back on the street
Back on the street again
Back on the street
Back on the street
Back on the street again

Feel the concrete under my feet
I'm freer than a cheetah, man
Back on the street again

Back on the street again
Back on the street
Back on the street again
Back on the street
[Repeat to fade]
