Streetwise Eyes (London, UK)

Streetwise eyes stare out at me
And all the hope that was to be
Is washed away with misery
And

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania-

I've watched as your industry has come and gone,

You gave them nothing in return,

I've seen as

Raindrops glisten on concrete

Mirrored images of yellow cabs,

''Ten dollar Nikeys for sale!''

Complete with security tags.

Role Model in the Hood of L.A.

Cadillac Escalade,
The driver in Ray Ban shade.
The kids see this
and think the man's made.
