Street Addict - Toyah

Repression …

Walking down the streets of depression

Seclusion …

See a smiling face -- it’s an illusion

Sudbued … on wine and quaaludes

Oh, valium (valium)

Oh, valium (valium)

Where is the sun?

(ooh-ooh-ooh)

Where is that big red sun?

Enormous sun

I’m so sleepy, I’m dragging myself along

What’s the hurry?

What’s everybody running from?

What’s the hurry?

What’s everybody running from?

Buildings sway, they come tumbling down

People concave -- contorting all around

Tidal waves, I just can’t.

stay away

The earth quakes

Or is it only in my handshakes?

Black bombers … huh!

Now something’s going down, so I’ll move on

Another bench, another town

But what’s the hurry, yeah

Men with pointed heads are surrounding me

And I said

What’s the hurry?

What’s everybody running from?

What’s the hurry?

What’s everybody running from?

Buildings sway, they come tumbling down

People concave -- contorting all around

Tidal waves, I just can’t stay away

The earth quakes -- or is it only in my handshakes?

Repression …

Walking down the same old streets of depression

Seclusion …

See a smiling face -- it’s an illusion

Valium … valium … valium … valium … valium
