Suede didn't treat its B-sides as opportunities to unload failed ideas, that's why Sci-Fi Lullabies has more consistency than many acts' studio albums, dispensing moody, catchy melodramatics while maintaining a remarkably high level of quality. "The Sound of the Streets" was written by Brett Anderson, and was the B-Side of "Beautiful Ones".
The Sound of the Streets lyrics:
She walks the streets of summer
Inside her there's no future
She walks the streets to pass the time
The cash machines are laughing
At plastic people passing
She walks the streets to pass the time
Sadie, Sadie in the sound of the streets
Insane as anything, ah ah
Sadie, Sadie kn-knows the sound of the streets
It's the same as anything, ah ah
She sees the midnight taxis
The toilets and the backstreets
She feels the wheels and needs a line
Outside there's crazy parties
There's dames in faces laughing
So many ways to pass the time
Sadie, Sadie in the sound of the streets
Insane as anything, ah ah
Sadie, Sadie kn-knows the sound of the streets
It's the same as anything, ah ah
She walks the streets of summer
Inside her there's no future
She walks the streets to pass the time
Inside she feels like winter
For the child that died within her
She walks the streets to pass the time
Sadie, Sadie in the sound of the streets
Insane as anything, ah ah
Sadie, Sadie kn-knows the sound of the streets
It's the same as anything, ah ah
Thank-you for the Suede. you are into the Know.
