don t go down that street

Culture Club

Don't go down that street
In those shoes that squeak
'Cause I get afraid that you might not come home
Careful how you speak
When you're on the street
'Cause they've gone and broken every telephone

Don't go down that street, no no no
Don't go down that street, no no no
Don't go down that street

Socchi e ikuna
Socchi e ikuna
Socchi e ikuna

Don't go down that street
Where the brave boys meet
'Cause I'm chicken feed when they're on their own
Don't get in that car
Things might go too far
Sono kuruma ni noruna

Don't go down that street, no no no
Don't go down that street, no no no
Don't go down that street

Don't go there, Don't go there
Don't get on the car
Don't go there, Don't go there
Don't get on the car
Gangs are wandering
You cannot come back safe and sound
No, No, it's dangerous
