Slumlord

In the middle of night
In the second sun, very last shades of day
I see that nobody kids anymore
Though we look that way, we were 24, growing up
'Cause it's easy to be the miser when no ones the wiser
It's easy to shake down
Easy to bring the green in various ways
Oh, it's easy to wear the crown

They say that this place ain't got a heart
'Cause I can 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 at the hallway till saturday
'Cause you got no rent to pay
Dreams are shoeing up next to none with no room again
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, hey, what's the use?
I guess we're kicking this city down

They say that this place ain't got a heart
'Cause I can 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 (if you want that money)
On and on and (if you want that money, hey-eh-eh-yay)
On and on and (if you want that money)
On and on and (if you want that money, hey-eh-eh-yay)
