Everest: Streetwise [lyrics]

Everest

Streetwise

I don't spend all my nights here

But I spend enough

And when the boys are all here

No one dares to get rough

I stand up from the table

And some clown gets in my way

His drink is spilled but with one glare from the boys

He walks away

Now you're street wise

Don't realize

Too late to say you're sorry now

I can't believe it's last call

What happened to the night

The bars close much too early

'Cause we're itching for a fight

We spill onto the streets

And we each go our separate ways

In the dull dark morning hours

When the nights turn into days

CHORUS

Now you're street wise (it's in your look)

Don't realize (you're on the hook)

Too late to say you're sorry now

Think I've seen all the action

I need for one night

The walk helps clear my head

As my home turf comes in sight

Then I look up ahead

To see that drinkstained shirt again

He looks much tougher now

With a dozen of his friends

CHORUS
