가사

Welcome to the land of the free
Where the poor get prison and the rich live in gated communities
Whatever happened to public space?
Not in my backyard, this is budding landscape
Change a few laws and incite a scare
Cripple the infrastructure there
Districts evicted, costs inflate
To free up valuable real estate
Crime and homelessness labeled a lifestyle choice
Social contract broken, they have no voice
See? These blighted ghettos are a mess
Gentrification at its best
Vets, addicts, mothers, children, tramps, and blacks
Gotta force these UTE's out ASAP
Round 'em up and keep our assets clean
From NYC to Chavez Ravine
If we pretend
That they're not there
Then maybe they
Will all go away
It's not our fault
Just the result
Of their own choice
To default
You broke your window of opportunity
No culpability
I'm sorry for your plight but quit looking so pissed
I've got my own problems to deal with
Quit begging for change and apply for a job
You ruining my one day off to shop
With your sunken eyes and pungent stink
Don't look at me, I didn't do anything
To deserve to feel so goddamn guilty
If we pretend
That they're not there
Then maybe they
Will all go away
Walk right on by
Cold as the night
Only the strong
Can survive
You broke your window of opportunity
No culpability
There's another two on Pacific Avenue
Can't understand why they choose to live how they do
Avoid eye contact as I briskly walk past
With my shopping bags full of useless crap
If you're going to beg, then you might as well
Tell me a joke or look a little more thankful
Here's my last dime, hey, I feel better already
Time to hit the Mall and spend some money
Take it away, Rudy
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Privatize and prevent disorder
We need fences, we need borders
Buy and save
Don't give a shit if there's no public restroom around
Get on the bus and get the fuck out of town
Force 'em out to preserve the American Dream
From San Francisco to New Orleans
Criminalize their means of sustenance
To maximize redevelopment
Giving every hard-working capitalist the right
To the pursuit of property and life
If we pretend
That we're immune
And this cannot
Happen to us
Give it some time
Fiscal decline
You may just cross
The poverty line
Don't break a window 'less you plan to pay the price
Our quality-of-life
Don't go burning bridges 'less you're ready for a fire
Your civil rights expire
