Lyrics
The oligarchy
Raise the buildings from the ground
Gentrification, white plans for the poor
Disadvantaged out, tear houses to the ground
Starbucks looks like it would flourish here
All we have to do is remove "unwanted elements"
This spot here looks great for development,
so take this low-cost housing and tear it fucking down
Economic Segregation
Marginalization relegate the poor to nil
and take everything they ever fucking had
Make empty promises, it makes for some good "P.R."
When they turn around you stab them in the back
You don't really care where they might have to go,
as long as they leave your precious, precious land
Economic Segregation
Suppression
Desperation
Futility
Loss of hope
Suppression
Desperation
Futility
Loss of hope
Gentrification, white plans for the poor
Disadvantaged out, tear houses to the ground
Tear them to the ground
Economic segregation
Keep the poor fucking down
