On My Block
-----------

Video tape them as the go.
The people are walking.

I start to talk.
They turn and listen.

I tell them stories.
Snow is falling.

The air is cold.
How will they know?

[Begin Chorus]

Collecting peoples money.
Street Performer.

Buying daily goods.
Customer.

Loud honking sounds.
People jay walk.

Forces at work.
On my block.

[End Chorus]

THere is a building.
with lots of shops.

Customers bustle.
As they watch.

Things are sold.
And things are bought.

I eat a sandwich.
With cheese and ketchup.

[Chorus]

Cars are driving by.
As people are waving hi.

Like trees that sway
in a storms disaray.

3PM starts rush hour.
Traffic jams aren't a conern.

With my clever plan.
I don't have the time to burn.
