Brick On Brick (HA9)

The landlord wanted a quick sale

Just a box by the side of the road

Three stories steep at the end of the street

As soon as they listed, it sold

Gave them the money they asked for

They took down the for sale sign

We collected the keys and we aigned guarantees

And filled it with Cedar and Pine

Now the cranes tower high up above me

And the workers work under the moon

They whistle away at the break of the day

If you ask them they'll give you a tune, they sing

Brick on brick on foreign brick

We build them quick to the deadline

Gold on gold on foreign gold

It all gets sold in HA9

If you're looking out of the window

There's an arch that lights up the sky

Depends on the team but it changes its scheme

Believe it enough then it might

Where the prefab blocks are assembled

And a transient tenancy thrives

Oh no morning bell but it's my kind of hell

On the weekend you know you're alive

Brick on brick on foreign brick

We build them quick to the deadline

Gold on gold on foreign gold

It all gets sold in HA9

Well I've never wanted for comfort

And the company gives my a high

The connections are great and they run until late

All the way to the end of the line

Brick on brick on foreign brick

We build them quick to the deadline

Gold on gold on foreign gold

It all gets sold in HA9
