Lyrics

Landlord

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

don't want to rent a 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 baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

You go and call yourself a business man

You're just a parasite on Pyllosan

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 baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

You go and call yourself a business man

You're just a parasite on Pyllosan

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 baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some

I ain't moving 'till the baliff comes

I've got no weapons, gonna get me some
