Landlord

I don't want to rent your house from you

I don't know how you can expect me to

I ain't moving 'cause I know my rights

Too many homeless on the streets at night

You own a street and a block of flats

You earn your living like the other rats

You've no morality what do you care

You deal in poverty you buy despair

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

You go and call yourself a business man

You're just a parasite on Phylosan

You're just a middle-class middle-aged shit

You sold your granny for a three-penny bit

You own a street and a block of flats

You earn your living like the other rats

You've no morality what do you care

You deal in poverty you buy despair

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

You go and call yourself a business man

You're just a parasite on Phylosan

You're just a middle-class middle-aged shit

You sold your granny for a three-penny bit

You own a street and a block of flats

You earn your living like the other rats

You've no morality what do you care

You deal in poverty you buy despair

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the bailiff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some
