EASY STREET
Jumped back in the alley
Couldn’t find what I was looking for
Thought I’d stay in the shadows
Living outside the law

Looked out from my window
Saw I’d missed the dirty rain
Only want to walk in sunshine
Won’t get fooled again

Easy Street, don’t tell me this is Easy Street
Easy Street, don’t tell me this is Easy Street
Cos I know better than that, better than
I know better than that, better than
I know better than that, better than that

I stepped up to the corner
To ask what happened and that
Put on my friendly face
But I stayed right at the back

Got some information
About humans and their race
It’s some kind of secret
But it puts me out of place

Easy Street, don’t tell me this is Easy Street
Easy Street, don’t tell me this is Easy Street
Cos I know better than that, better than
I know better than that, better than
I know better than that, better than that
