There he goes running down the street.
He's moving and panting and stomping his feet.
He's hoping and trying to lose the law.
He's almost away but there is a flaw.
He hit a dead end and there is no way out,
But it seems as if he has no doubt.
Look at that hole in the wall to his right.
He's punching the bricks out with all of his might.
He's making his way through little by little.
One minute more and he'll get to the middle.
He gets to the other side and sees it,
His big black car with his driver in it.
The cops are gaining with each passing moment.
It's making him nervous but he'll never show it.
He's too rough for anyone...
He's the 7th street gangster.
He looks in the mirror and pulls out his gun,
Cocks it and aims it ready for fun.
Got a big problem, his bullets are gone.
But even worse his driver named Don
Is passed out on the floor of the car.
With him down there, they won't go far.
The only solution is under his seat,
He pushes the button - the ground leaves his feet.
Once again the 7th street gangster has won.
Why do people challenge him when they know what will be done?
He's never lost and i doubt he ever will.
A word of warning to you all - don't mess with the SSG
The lyrics STREET SWEEPER of DANCE HALL CRASHERS is also present in the album The old record (1989-1992) (1996)
Dance Hall Crashers (DHC) è una band ska punk originaria di Berkeley, California, formatasi nel 1989. Il gruppo nacque dall'idea di Matt Freeman e Tim "Lint" Armstrong, membri fondatori della leggendaria band ska-punk Operation Ivy, che desideravano dedicarsi a un progetto puramente ska. Per completare la formazione si aggiunse Erik Larsen, batterista appassionato di ska. Il nome del gruppo deriva da una canzone di una vecchia band ska giamaicana suggerita da Erik stesso. La prima formazione comprendeva Freeman, Armstrong, Joey Schaaf, Andrew Champion e Grant Mcintire (amico e occasionalmente roadie di Operation Ivy), che si occupò anche della scrittura dei testi. Tra i brani più rappresentativi del gruppo ricordiamo "The Ska Song", "Don't Let Me Down" e "I Got You Babe".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
