Street Corner Love Lyrics by Jobriath

Creatures of the Street

0

I need more than religious affection
I need more than your pious perfection
I need you to know the one you give away
To every pretty stranger who should pass your way!
Oh when will you give me your street corner love? Yeah!
When will you give me your street corner love?
You take good care of my spiritualities
You keep a book on my socialities
You say you know just the food my body needs
To keep it strong and healthy, now I'm full of seeds!
When will you give me your street corner love? [x2]
Think I'll make it back to Selma Avenue
I won't eat right but I won't go hungry
I won't have shelter but I won't get cold
I won't have you but I won't grow old...gracefully
So give me more than your gay personality
Sometimes your smile is a frowning reality
Give me light, love me like we never met
Love me like tomorrow finds us searching yet
Oh when will you give me your street corner love? Yeah!
When will you give me your street corner love? Yeah! [x2]
[Spoken]
Man: Hi there, come here often?
Woman: Sometimes I do!
