Songtexte Dead End Street (Alternate Mono Version) - The Kinks

There's a crack up on 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

(Dead end!) Why we should be
On dead end street?
(Dead end!) People are living
On dead end street
(Dead end!) I can't live
On dead end street
Dead end street (yeah!)
Dead end street (no!)

On a cold and frosty morning
Wipe my eyes and stop me yawning
And the feet are nearly frozen
Boil the tea and put some toast on

What are we living for?
Two-roomed apartment on the second floor
No chance to emigrate
I'm deep in debt and now it's much too late
We both want to work so hard
We can't get the chance

(Dead end!) People live
On dead end street
(Dead end!) People are living
On dead end street
(Dead end!) I'm gonna die
On dead end street
Dead end street (yeah!)
Dead end street (no!)

(Dead end!) People live
On dead end street
(Dead end!) People are dying
On dead end street
(Dead end!) I'm gonna die
On dead end street

Dead end street (yeah!)
Dead end street (no!)
Dead end street (yeah!)
Get to my feet (no!)
Dead end street (yeah!)
Dead end street (no!)
Dead end street (yeah!)
Dead end street (no!)

Dead end street (yeah!)
How'd you feel? (No!)
How'd you feel? (Yeah!)
How'd you feel? (No!)
How'd you feel? (Yeah!)
Dead end street (no!)
Dead end street (yeah!)
Dead end street (no!)
