You'll See

Ay, ya bum

Yeah, you, move over

Get your ass off that Range Rover

That attitude towards the homeless

Is exactly what Maureen is protesting tonight

Maureen is protesting

Losing her performance space

Not my attitude

What happened to Benny

What happened to his heart?

And the ideals he once pursued?

And the owner of that lot next door

Has a right to do with it as he pleases

Happy birthday, Jesus

The rent, you're wasting your time

We're broke, and you broke your word

This is absurd, there is one way you won't have to pay

I knew it

Next door, the home of cyber arts, you see

And now that the block is re-zoned

Our dream can become a reality

You'll see, boys

You'll see, boys

A state of the art, digital, virtual interactive studio

I'll forego your rent and on paper guarantee

That you can stay here for free

If you do me one small favor

What?

Convince Maureen to cancel her protest

Why not just get an injunction or call the cops?

I did, and they're on stand by

But my investors would rather I handle this quietly

You can't quietly wipe out an entire tent city

Then watch It's a Wonderful Life on TV

You wanna produce films and write songs?

You need somewhere to do it

It's what we used to dream about

Think twice before you poo-poo it

You'll see, boys

You'll see, boys

You'll see the beauty of a studio

That let's us do our work and get paid

With condos on the top

Whose rent keeps open our shop

Just stop the protest

And you'll have it made

You'll see

Or you'll pack

That boy could use some Prozac

Or heavy drugs

Or group hugs

Which reminds me, we have a detour to make tonight

Anyone who wants to can come along

Life supports a group of people coping with life

You don't have to stay too long

First, I've got a protest to save

Roger

I'm not much company you'll find

Behave!

You'll catch up later, he's just got other things on his mind

You'll see, boys

We'll see, boys

Let it be, boys

I like boys

Boys like me

We'll see
