lyrics

Board up the windows board up this whole town
developers are comin’ gonna turn your life around
and if you do not sell to them they’ll just burn it down
and buy it out from under you for pennies on the pound
gas can matchstick they take it all away
they might have well just took your life cause you wouldn’t take their pay
boom town ghost town, what’s in a name?
There’s no thing as good or bad when money’s to be made
there’s a fire down at the pet salon
poor folks are angry that the free clinic is gone
and the library’s been packed up
renovated moved along
off to greener pastures where it stays light ’til dawn
that boutique is burning and it smells like baby clothes
the polyester’s puddling in a pool on the floor
I tried to stop them but they’re going in for more
they’re all gonna get burned alive going back into that store
