I`m on Lonely Street age nearly three Recently Mama`s cryin all the time is it because of me Or my younger sister, even Dad was weeping when he kissed her Face all Puffy like a blister, cryin` like he missed her Since we moved away from the house where we useta play They say I`ll understand one day, but I doubt it, Mama never say nothin` about it How`d it get to be so crowded I found it a strain, everywhere I look I see pain And I can`t escape the feelin`, meybe I`m to blame So I strain to listen, prayin` for a decision, whishing` they were kissin` This feels like extradition or exile, Mama finds it hard to smile So I make pretend cups of coffe in her favourite style She says child I`m working so there`s nothing you lack Bus she know I want my Dad, I want my family back I`m on Lonely Street, age forty-three Couldn`t gauge when tot quit so my wife quit me Took offence, took the kids, I wish that was the end But before she took her leave she took care of my best friend Workin` all the hours God send was not the tactic Y`see cuz after ten years I`m left with jackshit Wanted to make the cash Quik so I useta work real late Bad sex, My woman`s vex, even if I stay awake And if I`m honest, I had a little cake at the office I was eatin` We`d do our cheatin over coffees, makin` tea for the bosses Makin free with me and I agree I got sleazy too easily But I`m forty-three, this doesn`t usually happen to me Now I`m lonely, I wonder what my son`s doing today Suddenly I`m blinkin` like the screen on my computer display and I`m drinkin` Concerned about what`s down the track if I don`t get my family back I`m on Lonely Street, number fifty-three Boarded up probperly, I`ll probably get pulled down Litter all around inside there`s no sound and no light But yo it gets busy at night, people creppin` Derelicts sneakin` to fix, speakin` On the way my timbers creaking`, roof leakin` And bricks comin` loose, knee high in refuse But even though I`m a slum I`m still of some use There was a time when my walls were decorated And under my roof children were educated But now paint`s faded, windows are all smashed A crash in the economy robbed me of my family And no strategy combats negative equitiy so that`s it. Like violence it`s drastic I`m freaking`, and seekin` to be more than just a house of crack somebody bring my family back Bring My Family Back featuring Sabrina Setlur "Ich will meine Familie zurück" Ich steh auf Einsamstraße Nummer 53 Und wünscht` ich hätt` ne Familie, die vernünftig mit mir umgeht Ich war günstig zu haben, jetzt steh` ich leer seit hundert Tagen Nachts kommen Knaben, die mir Scheiben einschlagen Nich` zu ertragen, doch ich trag` die Last wie die Narben/Und wo ich schon mal da bin, muß ich mich leider fragen/Warum wollten sie mich erst haben, wie die Kinder und den Wagen und überlassen mich jetzt den Maden Könnten Wände sprechen, würd` ich klagen Die Farben, die einst aufgetragen verblassen Wie die Liebe von Mittelklasse Paaren, die sich heute hassen Ich kann`s nicht lassen, ich laß jeden in mich rein Aber ich brauch` meine Familie, um mein Heim zu sein Einst trugen sie in mich hinein aber dann trugen sie aus mir hinaus/Ich schätz` auch ich bin bald raus, es sieht schlecht aus altes Haus Ich erleb` mein blaues Wunder während Leere mich erdrückt Ich will mein Stück vom Glück, bringt mir meine Familie zurück
