Songs about street workers

The less known the better:

I'm not mad at you, I'm mad at the dirt.

not about street workers, but about a brothels
Ningyou shoukan(Doll brothel)




here's the english lyrics

Welcome to this sad doll brothel
I knew you'd come knocking at my door some day
With your unashamed desire for and all
When the childish you disappeared I noticed,
Your most precious, beloved, adorable doll
I suppose, then, I'll meet with you_just the way I was
Although I've already forgotten all about you
You know you can't abandon me_no matter how many times you try
Still I have not one memory of you, so I can't very well call you master, can I?
You point at my lipstick and screw the screws into my back
I will return to make you a child once more

"Mary Magdeline" by Meshell N'degeocello

I always wondered about these two Prince songs...

"U Make My Sunshine" - Is that about a pimp/prostitute relationship?

"Rock Hard in a Funky Place" - Is that about a whore house?

Speaking of Ms. Simone, here is my favorite song by her about the subject. This "lady of the evening", takes the subway however. This is the Masters at Work, remix.

Two more jams I like to play when I play hooker jams, is "Nasty Girl" and "Sex Shooter". I won't post the videos though because a certain little hussy would get his black bikini drawers in a wad. lol
