Michael Friedman - Prelude lyrics

I'm just walking down the street
And the street is lonely
There's no one to save me save me
Save me save me

I'm just walking down the street

And the street is lonely
There's no one to save me
And no one for me to save and I feel like
I could be Superman
I could come and save you

I'm just walking down the street
Walking down the street ah
Ah ah ah
And I feel like ah ah ah

I want to tell you the story of me and
My friend Mingus Rude but to do that
I have to tell you about my mother (sung)
My mother had a dream my mother used to sing
My mother had a record collection
My mother made it seem
That every time she'd sing
Every song made a secret connection
Nina Simone, Woody Guthrie, Ethel Waters
The Mamas and the Papas
Their sons and daughters
Josephine Baker, Miles Davis
The Rolling Stones
She said the song would save us

We're part of a movement
This place is where it starts
The block is the kind of
Space the world should be
A better America than the one's that's on TV
That's how I see it that's how it is
