Lost in the high street

Where the dogs run

Roaming suburban boys

Mother's got a hairdo to be done

She says they're too old for toys

Stood by the bus stop with a felt pen

In this suburban hell

And in the distance a police car

To break the suburban spell

Let's take a ride

And run with the dogs tonight

In suburbia

You can't hide

Run with the dogs tonight

In suburbia

Break a window by the town hall

Listen the siren screams

There in the distance like a roll call

Of all the suburban dreams

Let's take a ride

And run with the dogs tonight

In suburbia

You can't hide

Run with the dogs tonight

In suburbia

Run with the dogs tonight

You can't hide

I only wanted something else to do but hang around

I only wanted something else to do but hang around

Hang around hang around

It's on the front page of the papers

This is their hour of need

Where's a policeman when you need one

To blame the colour tv

Let's take a ride

And run with the dogs tonight

In suburbia

You can't hide

Run with the dogs tonight

In suburbia

Run with the dogs tonight

You can't hide

In suburbia
