I play the streetlife, because there`s no place I can go
Streetlife, it`s the only life I know
Streetlife, and there`s a thousand parts to play
Streetlife, until you play your life away

You let the people see, just who you wanna be
And every night you shine, just like a super star
That`s how the life is played, a 10 cent masquerade
You dress, you walk, you talk
You`re who you think you are

Streetlife, you can run away from time
Streetlife, for a nickel or a dime
Streetlife, but you better not get old
Streetlife, or you`re gonna feel the cold

There`s always love for sale a grown-up fairytale
Prince charming always smiles behind a silver spoon
And if you keep it young your song is always sung
Your love will pay your way beneath the silver moon

Streetlife, Streetlife
Streetlife, Streetlife
