This is the street where I'm living
I feel there is something in the air
A tension is getting steadily stronger
My senses tell me 'better take care'
This is the street where I'm living
Where I was born and played as a child
In this street no one ever bothered
About skin coloured black or white
Now you may pretend you haven't seen
Ooh, you may pretend you haven't heard
But the day they proudly fly their flag
Ooh, you damn well know that people get hurt
There is a voice from the shadow
Safe from where it can not be seen
It's inflammatory words hit target
Until division takes command of this street
This is the street where I'm living
Where I was born and played as a child
This is the street where I'm living
See now how dark clouds gather in the sky
You may pretend you haven't seen
You may pretend you haven't heard
but on the day they proudly fly their flag
Ooh, you damn well know that people get hurt
This is the street where I'm living
Where I was born and played as a child
This is the street where I'm living
See now how dark clouds gather in the sky
There's a riot, I see fear on the faces
While sirens scream and people run by
The street where I'm living
Is on TV 'cause there's a house on fire
You may pretend you haven't seen
You may pretend you haven't heard
But the day they proudly fly their flag
Ooh, you damn well know that people get hurt
There is a voice from the shadow
Safe from where it can not be seen
It's inflammatory words hit target
Until division takes command of this street
There's a riot, I see fear on the faces
While sirens scream and people run by
The street where I'm living
Is on TV 'cause there's a house on fire
