SOUNDS FROM THE STREET - Paul Weller



Sounds from the street, sounds so sweet

What's my name?

It hurts my brain to think



Sounds from the city, sound so pretty

Young bands playing

Young kids digging - And I dig them



The USA's got the sea

Yeah, but the British kid's got the streets

I don't mind, the city's right

Sounds from the street, sounds just fine



I know I come from Woking and you say I'm a fraud

But my heart's in the city, where it belongs



Words from the voices

Rock and roll rejoices

It's something new, it's something young for a change



Sounds from the street, they sound so sweet

They gotta take notice

Why should they stop us? We don't need them



We're never gonna change a thing

And the situation's rapidly decreasing

But what can I do?

I'm trying to be true

That's more than you, at least I'm doing something
