lyrics
Turn it up, turn it up (4x)
Music In the streets
can i get some
block rockin’ beats
when i’m lonesome
shuffling my feet
as i’m walking
music in the streets
instead of listen to them talkin
Music in the Streets
Is this insanity?
Or just something sweet
In the middle of calamity
Can I have a treat?
I’ve been a good boy
Music in the streets
Something for my soul to enjoy
(John)
Every day it seems to get a little bit harder
In every way anything you say can get you in hot water
Better just to not say anything to anyone
Keep your head down and hope they turn the speakers on
Life can be a jungle when you’re living wild style
Are you the lion or the monkey or the elephant child?
We all end up at the watering hole
And listen to the birds sing out the song of our soul
Music in the Streets
Is this insanity?
Or just something sweet
In the middle of calamity
Can I have a treat?
I’ve been a good boy
Music in the streets
Something for my soul to enjoy
Music In the streets
can i get some
block rockin’ beats
when i’m lonesome
shuffling my feet
as i’m walking
music in the streets
instead of listen to them talkin
(Leesa)
Sometimes I listen to that little voice inside of me
Telling me all kinds of, all kinds of crazy
Too much in my own head need something from the outside
To accompany my reckless joyride
Drop the needle DJ cause I gotta get my fix
The little voice inside of me is up to her old tricks
We need a little something with a groove and a backbeat
I’m jaywalking while you’re sitting in the backseat
Come on come on
Make it a little louder
Come on come on
Make me lose control
Come on Come on
Give it your best shot
Give us music if you won’t fill the potholes
Music In the streets
can i get some
block rockin’ beats
when i’m lonesome
shuffling my feet
as i’m walking
music in the streets
instead of listen to them talkin
Music in the Streets
Is this insanity?
In the middle of calamity
Can I have a treat?
I’ve been a good boy
Music in the streets
Something for my soul to enjoy
(Mello G)
Yo! Turn up the beat
Turn up the beat me say turn up the treble
Turn the bass make me move my waist
Turn up the treble, burstin my bubble
From the east to the west to the north to the south
This the music that I’m talkin about
White man black man syrian indian
Music from every nation
Music in the Streets
Is this insanity?
Or just something sweet
In the middle of calamity
Can I have a treat?
I’ve been a good boy
Music in the streets
Something for my soul to enjoy
Music In the streets
can i get some
block rockin’ beats
when i’m lonesome
shuffling my feet
as i’m walking
music in the streets
instead of listen to them talkin
