On With The Action

(アルバム： No Heavy Petting - 1976)

Something going on at the corner of the block
It's the kids down there
They were starting to rock

Hot black fever running every place
When a Greek kid pulled a knife and pushed it in his face
Some girl makes it with a lover in the door
As the ambulance pulls away, she cries out more

And it's all night long, all night long
On with the action
You need the fastest legs alive
On with the action

'Cause if you can't run you ain't gonna survive
On with the action
Mammy's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet?

All the kids stand laughing
They never had such fun
Then someone cuts a blind man who just can't make a run

And the queen who's been standing behind the toilet door
'Cause his parents don't like boyfriends, call him a whore
But, oh, the minister's staring with his bible in his hand
Was this God's children, he didn't understand

And it's all night long, all night long
On with the action
You need the fastest legs alive
On with the action

If you can't run you ain't gonna survive
On with the action
Mammy's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet?

And it's all night long, all night long
On with the action
You need the fastest legs alive
On with the action

If you can't run you ain't gonna survive
On with the action
Mammy's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet?
