They said our love was chronic, I knew you were moronic,
babe let's keep this thing platonic if you know what I mean!
But you leapt into my dream, your laser made me beam
and I lost my inhibitions to your streetwise love.

We'd a fling in the spring and you promised me romance,
a bummer in the summer when you dumped me at the dance;
hit rock bottom in the autumn when your wife came back from France.
You made my heart kersplinter, didn't give no second chance

for our streetwise love;
it's only streetwise love;
you're just so streetwise love; streetwise love...

You pointed out that I was borin' when I cried upon your door'n
laughed and said my sobbin' made you smile;
till your sex life on the rocks made you pull up both your socks
and our lovin' was photonic for a while.
Then our nuclei dispersed when you ran off with that nurse
and I cursed and cursed and hoped that you'd get piles...

Well!
You said I should anticipate when stolen love disintegrates;
your wife divorced you much too late, I'm laughin' now because I hate you
and your streetwise love;
it's only streetwise love;
you aint so streetwise love;
streetwise love!
