Ciy officials lie on and on again

Down in my city, the rent has gone up again

Hide benind fakse words no more

What the fuck d you take us for



Council- you bastards control the waterfront

Don't let them tear you down



Tried to protest, it seems all invain

This rent increase I can't afford to pay

The place I live is hip today

In comes the rich the poor has t g away



Down at city hall I state my case

The city council has all been paid

They stand for the people, so they say

You filthy liars I hope you rot in hell



Council-You bastards control the waterfront

Don't let them tear you down



Rent control petitionsand off to court we go

The judge takes our side, our voice has been heard

The city knows of the council's illegal way's

This working man just won't go away
