Luxury Condos for the Poor Songtext
Brick by brick you′re building 'em up
And block by block you′re shutting 'em down
You say you want them to BELIEVE in this
Then give them a place where they can live
A fresh coast of paint won't cover up these stains
Yeah that′s what I call progress:
Just build a wall around the mess
You′re building a ghost town
Been flipped so much that up looks down
You're building a ghost town Build some luxury condos for the poor
A fresh coast of paint won′t make it go away
That's what I call progress:
Just build a wall around the mess
You′re building a ghosttown
If you lived here your whole life, it's time to get out
We′re building waterfront gravesites 30 stories high
Where dreams of fictional people live
While the city around you dies.
And block by block you′re shutting 'em down
You say you want them to BELIEVE in this
Then give them a place where they can live
A fresh coast of paint won't cover up these stains
Yeah that′s what I call progress:
Just build a wall around the mess
You′re building a ghost town
Been flipped so much that up looks down
You're building a ghost town Build some luxury condos for the poor
A fresh coast of paint won′t make it go away
That's what I call progress:
Just build a wall around the mess
You′re building a ghosttown
If you lived here your whole life, it's time to get out
We′re building waterfront gravesites 30 stories high
Where dreams of fictional people live
While the city around you dies.
