I still hang around neither lost nor found Hear the lonely sound of music in the night Nights are always bright That's all that's left for me, yeah I play the street life Because there`s no place I can go Street life And it`s the only life I know Street life And there`s a thousand parts to play Street life Until you play your life away You let the people see Just who you want to be And every night you shine just like a super star That`s how the life is played A ten cent Masquerade You dress, and walk, and talk you`re who you think you are Street life You can run away from time Street life For a nickel and a dime Street life But you better not get old Street life Or you`re gonna feel the cold There`s always love for sale A grown-up fairy tale 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 I play the street life Because there`s no place I can go Street life And it`s the only life I know Street life And there`s a thousand parts to play Street life Until you play your life away Street life, street life, street life, oh street life I play the street life Because there`s no place I can go Street life And it`s the only life I know Street life And there`s a thousand parts to play Street life Until you play your life away You let the people see Just who you want to be And every night you shine just like a super star That`s how the life is played A ten cent Masquerade You dress, and walk, and talk you`re who you think you are Street life You can run away from time Street life For a nickel and a dime Street life But you better not get old Street life Or you`re gonna feel the cold There`s always love for sale A grown-up fairy tale 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 Street life, street life, street life, oh street life Street life, street life, street life, oh street life
