On With The Action

Something going on at the corner of the block
It's the kids down there, they were startin' to rock
Hot black fever runnin' every place
When the Greek kid pulled a knife and pushed it in his face

Some girl makes it with a lover in the dark
As the ambulance pulls away, she cries out more

And it's all night long, all night long

On with the action
Lead the fastest loves alive
On with the action
If you can't run, you ain't gonna survive

On with the action
Mommy's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet

All the kids stand laughin' they never had such fun
Then someone cuts a brown man who just can't make a run
And the queen who's been standin' behind the toilet door
'Cos his parents don't like boyfriends, call him a whore

But all the minister's starin' with his Bible in his hand
Was this Gods children, he didn't understand

And it's all night long, all night long

On with the action
Lead the fastest loves alive
On with the action
If you can't run you ain't gonna survive

On with the action
Mommy's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet

On with the action
Lead the fastest loves alive
On with the action
If you can't run you ain't gonna survive

On with the action
Mommy's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet
