Shut Doors Songtext
von The Restarts

Same old story, the world around
We′re all getting priced out of our OWN towns
Discarded youth fend for yourself
Coz those on top won't share the wealth
To every pub landlord that′s taken us in
We pack it to the rafters everybody wins
An age old formula tested and true
We take the door
They take the booze

They're killing our music to develop property
Soaring business rates and music license fee
Backdoor deals the council's taking bribes
No room for you the day the music died


A sense of well-being somewhere to belong
A community hub coz Music makes us strong
A place to dance and quench your thirst
To the noise complaining twat
WE WERE HERE FIRST!
Gonna keep on fighting celebrate our noise
Support your local venues before they get destroyed
Invest in music culture and receive applause
Snatch back our culture from their greedy claws

They′re killing our music to develop property
Soaring business rates and music license fee
Backdoor deals the council′s taking bribes
No room for you the day the music died

They're shutting our venues
They′re killing live music
They're choking our culture

They′re killing our music to develop property
Soaring business rates and music license fee
Backdoor deals the council's taking bribes
No room for you the day the music died
