Steve Mackey - Street Operator lyrics

They said you went down to the Grove looking to score (Oh, what a bore) "It was a really heavy scene down there" I've heard that before And then you, you bought one gram of icing sugar Well, I guess that's "sweet as" Oh, you - yeah, you are such a street operator You know just where you're coming from - oh yeah And you have really got it together And nobody can put you on And you get it right, oh, every single night So how come you're alone? Yeah, how come you're alone? You went to the South Bank for the Salsa just last night (Oh, outtasight!) Got short-changed by the barmaid But you daren't, you daren't put her right But you really took it out on her later On your own in the middle of the night Oh, you - oh you are such a street operator You know just where you're coming from - oh yeah Yeah, you have really got it together And nobody can put you on And you get it right, oh, every single night So how come you're alone? Yeah, how come you're alone? Why don't you just face it? You can no longer fake it Why don't you just go? Oh, you - oh you are such a street operator You know just where you're coming from - oh yeah And you have really got it together And nobody can put you on And you get it right, oh, every single night So how come you're alone? Yeah, how come you're alone? How come you're alone? Yeah, how come you're alone?
