What goes around

Just gone twelve and you're on your way home
voices in the dark and you know you're not alone
you pick up the pace as the footsteps quicken
do you turn around you don't wanna be chicken
you're looking around for a place to hide
but all the doors are locked, people safe inside

(Chorus):
Kids on the streets are gonna get ya
no escape cuz they won't let ya
Kids on the streets are gonna get ya
no escape cuz they won't let ya

Remembering the days when it used to be you
when you were mugging old people for a quid or two
bragging to your mates next day in the bar
you were telling them all what a man you are
twenty years old when you thought it was fun
but now you're so weak you can hardly run

(Chorus)

Dark city streets make you feel so alone
there's no passing cars, no public phone
you wish you were at home tucked up in your bed
not pushed to the floor with a boot in your head
you say you're oh so sorry for the things you did
you say it wasn't your fault you were just a kid
