Cryin' (oh ah-ah ah-ah) in the streets
Cryin' (oh ah-ah ah-ah) in the streets

Here comes a girl
She really wants to make the scene
She's proud of her tight fittin' clothes
She'll show the world she really swings,
& all her heartbreak, no one knows
& all her heartbreak, no one knows
See it in her eyes (see it in her eyes)
Ah (see it in her ey yi yi yies)

There goes a boy
He's makin' like he's big and bad
Leather boots & bleach streaks in his hair
He's wearin' shades & Levis too
He's actin' smart and nonchalant
He's actin' smart and nonchalant
See it in his eyes (see it in his eyes)
Ah (see it in his ey yi yi yies)

(Watch 'em in the streets) oh oh they're masqueradin'
(Watch em' inthe streets) oh oh they're just paradin'
(Make-up won't cover up) no no no no
(Make-up won't cover up) no no no no
See it in their eyes (see it in their eyes)
Ah (see it in their ey yi yi yies)
