Žodžiai dainai: Indk. In Decay. Living With L.e.s.


When I first came to the neighborhood
Down beneath the up above
I knew I was in love.
Abandoned buildings winking and the red light district blinking at me.
Oh yeah, because I love criminals, I love crime.
The neighborhood's a time bomb and it's ticking on time.
But it's all going down,
The mayor says he wants our town.
But it's all going down,
The mayor says he wants our town.

Cuz someday-
We'll be going home to find we don't have any home at all
Anyday-
They'll section off our block with riot gear and come evict us all
Today-
The lower east side is yuppified with fat cats and their poor folk hide
Someday-
Maybe we will re-emerge from east river a turning tide
Avenue by avenue we'll take back everything we knew
The gardens, Squats, and all our share.
We'll even take back Tompkins Square!
I've got something of a problem with the nation
It's called gentrification
Marching to our neighborhood to lock us in the station.

"We're gonna clean up the streets!"
What? so we got cleaner streets to sleep on?
aw gee, thanks a lot
I always thought,
That killing was your main plot.
Didn't know you were so damn upright about it
Sneaking in expensive stores so we won't even fight about it
Creeping up block by block, you think you're so damn right about it
You've got all the "rights" you need
the S's on the end are always dollar signs
And we can read between the lines.

Cuz someday-
We'll be going home to find we don't have any home at all
Anyday-
They'll section off our block with riot gear and come evict us all
Today-
The lower east side is yuppified with fat cats and their poor folk hide
Someday-
Maybe we will re-emerge from east river a turning tide
Avenue by avenue we'll take back everything we knew
The gardens, Squats, and all our share.
We'll even take back Tompkins Square!
I've got something of a problem with the nation
It's called gentrification
Marching to our neighborhood to lock us in the station.

PUSHING THE POOR OFF SHORE!
