On My Block — текст песни (The Go-Betweens)

alright... come on... no-w-w-w-w
the main gate to the mansion is locked
it`s on my street -- on my block
I went in but I got chased off
the store-keeper said `why don`t the cars stop?`
but the mansion`s not the attraction it once was
and it`s on my, it`s on my, on my... on my block
on my block
girl I`ve been called names times before
it happens cause it happens here
and nobody said they`d ever hear
the garden is unkept and in bloom
there is wilderness and flowers in my room
the caretakers kept to be fired soon
on my block
girl I`ve been called names times before
it happens cause it happens here
and nobody said they`d ever hear
the maingate -- the mansion -- is locked
I`m standing on the spot
and it`s on my, oh my my... on my block
on my block (fade)
