WILD IN THE STREETS (Music and Lyrics by Garland Jeffreys)
In the heat of the summer
Better call up the plumber
And turn on the street pump
To cool me off
With your newspaper writers
And your big crime fighters
You still need a drugstore
To cure my cough

Running wild in the streets

We got a gang called Shady
And a midnight lady
And two transvestites
To beat the band
You better not touch us
You best believe us
Your teenage Johnny's
Gonna be a man

Runnin' wild in the streets

Mrs. America
Tell me how is your favorite son
Do you really care
What he has done

Runnin' wild in the streets

  • I miss NYC Halloween.

    These Red State retards don't know how to do anything that isn't storebought. They are as inventive about Halloween as a cinderblock in an Easter basket.

  • Always a wild pleasure!

  • Smartly done, G.

  • wow what a lot of fun ~ nicely done
