Street Beat — The Queen Street Golden Creeps

Toronto, 1979. Queen Street is sweating under neon. The alley walls are plastered with torn flyers, the pavement is slick with city light, and Wells is standing front and center like he owns the whole damn block.

This is “Street Beat” the new single from The Queen Street Golden Creeps.

Fast. Loud. Bratty. Built on dirty guitar riffs, stomping drums, cheap red wine, and the kind of summer-night restlessness that makes a guy want to run straight toward the noise.

Wells brings the sneer. The band brings the chaos. Queen Street brings the heat.

One way street. No turning back.

Now playing: “Street Beat” — The Queen Street Golden Creeps

Lyrics

[Intro - The Riff]

[Verse 1 - The Boredom]

I SIT ALONE IN THE SUMMER HEAT!

I HEAR THE SOUND OF THE DIRTY STREET!

I GOT NO MONEY AND I GOT NO TIME!

I GOT A HEAD FULL OF CHEAP RED WINE!

I WANT TO RUN AND I WANT TO GO!

I WANT TO BE AT THE ROCK AND ROLL SHOW!

[Chorus - The Hook]

OH! I WANT THE STREET BEAT! (HEY!)

I WANT THE STREET BEAT! (HEY!)

GIVE ME THE NOISE AND THE LIGHTS ON THE FLOOR!

GIVE ME THE ACTION AND GIVE ME SOME MORE!

I GOT THE FIRE AND I GOT THE HEAT!

I'M LIVING FAST ON THE ONE WAY STREET!

[Verse 2 - The Getaway]

I JUMP THE FENCE AND I RUN THE LIGHT!

I WANT TO OWN THE WHOLE DAMN NIGHT!

I SEE THE GIRL IN THE BRIGHT RED DRESS!

I WANT TO RIP IT UP AND LEAVE A MESS!

TURN UP THE RADIO! TURN UP THE LOUD!

I WANT TO HIDE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CROWD!

[Chorus - Maximum Power]

OH! I WANT THE STREET BEAT! (HEY!)

I WANT THE STREET BEAT! (HEY!)

GIVE ME THE NOISE AND THE LIGHTS ON THE FLOOR!

GIVE ME THE ACTION AND GIVE ME SOME MORE!

I GOT THE FIRE AND I GOT THE HEAT!

I'M LIVING FAST ON THE ONE WAY STREET!

[Guitar Solol]

[Bridge - The Stop-Time]

WELL!

I GOT NO SENSE!

AND!

I GOT NO PRIDE!

BUT I GOT THE POWER LOCKED DEEP INSIDE!

YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!

[Final Chorus - Total Chaos]

OH! I WANT THE STREET BEAT! (HEY!)

I WANT THE STREET BEAT! (HEY!)

GIVE ME THE NOISE AND THE LIGHTS ON THE FLOOR!

GIVE ME THE ACTION AND GIVE ME SOME MORE!

I GOT THE FIRE AND I GOT THE HEAT!

I'M LIVING FAST ON THE ONE WAY STREET!

[Outro - The Punk Ending]

STREET BEAT! STREET BEAT!
