Slumlord

(альбом: VEGA INTL. Night School - 2015)

In the middle of May
In the seconds of the very last shades of day
I see that nobodies kids anymore
Though we look that way from the 24th floor window

Cause it's easy to be the miser when no one's the wiser
Easy to shake down
Easy to glean the green from Bay Ridge to Queens
Easy to wear the crown

They say that this place ain't got a heart
Cause I could still hear the beat
And every night is oh-oh-oh-ah-oh, oh-oh-oh-ah-oh
From all the way down the street

It goes on and on and (as long as you got the money)
On and on and (as long as you got the money)
On and on and (as long as you got the money)
On and on and (Slumlord doesn't care)

Staying out of hallway and hold tight till Saturday
Cause you got the rent to pay
Dreams are shelling out next to none, with no Rubicon
Well honey, those days are done

Shelling out three G's, for four walls and keys
Hey, at least you can run the town
Shaking our pockets loose, but hey what's the use
I guess we're taking it sitting down

They say that this place ain't got a heart
Cause I could still hear the beat
And every night is oh-oh-oh-ah-oh, oh-oh-oh-ah-oh
From all the way down the street

It goes on and on and (as long as you got the money)
On and on and (as long as you got the money)
On and on and (as long as you got the money)
On and on and (as long as you got the money)

It goes on and on and (but they want that money)
On and on and (they want that money-eh-eh-eh-ey)
On and on and (they want that money)
On and on and (they want that money-eh-eh-eh-ey)
