Lyrics

There's a crack up in the ceiling And the kitchen sink is leaking Out of work and got no money A Sunday joint of bread and honey What are we living for? Two-roomed apartment on the second floor No money coming in The rent collector's knocking trying to get in We are strictly second class We don't understand Why we should live in dead end street We should live in dead end street People are dying in dead end street Dead end street Get to my feet Dead end street Dead end street On a cold and frosty morning Wipe my eyes and stop me yawning And my feet are nearly frozen I boil some tea and put the toast on What are we living for? Two-roomed apartment on the second floor No chance to emigrate We're deep in debt and now it's much too late We both want to work so hard but we can't get a chance We are going to die on dead end street We are going to die on dead end street People are dying on dead end the street Dead end street get to my feet Dead end street Dead end street On a cold and frosty morning I wipe my eyes and stop me yawning And my feet are nearly frozen I boil some tea and put the toast on We know we're living for Two-roomed apartment on the second floor No money coming in The rent collector's knocking, trying to get in We both want to work so hard but we can't get a chance We're gonna die on dead end street People are dying on dead end street We're you gonna die on dead end street Dead end street get to my feet Dead end street yeah get to my feet
