Sure I need your money

But Id like to talk to you

Yeh I could use your money

But I wanna talk to you

You throw me a coin

as you rush past

Your life is a blur

that moves so fast

I live in my place

in the world at your feet

Like to tell you how it is

the other side of the street



Ill give you some money

But I cant talk to you

You can have my money

though I cant talk to you

Ill do what I can

but Im real short of time

Telephone is ringing

Two calls on the line

Places to go

and people to meet

Too busy to breathe

The other side of the street



We dont understand how the other half live

Yet the other half have so much to give

We all travel to the place where well going to meet

Yet we never seem to make the other side of the stre
