lyrics

If you don't want to be gentrified, don't be gentrified
You can either try to talk or spray the pesticide
Its here, its happening
no turning the clock back
Your either leaving dear or you strike that

Yes, you love the streets
Uh huh, I love em' too
Alot of problems solved when I'm in to loving you
And if we cannot love then there is nothing in common
call the man at arms and commence the fucking bombing

you don't want to be gentrified, don't be gentrified
You can either try to talk or spray the pesticide
Its here, its happening
no turning the clock back
Your either leaving dear or you strike that

I think its fucked up, and based on race
But you've got to either build or fucking spit in their face
You've gotta embrace or give them crackers a chase
either headline the bill or spray the party with mace.

Now you don't want to be gentrified, don't be gentrified
You can either try to talk or spray the pesticide
Its here, its happening
no turning the clock back
Your either leaving dear or you strike that

Its sad song, I know dear, I know
But you've got to either shovel the shit or shovel snow
We're gonna have to struggle some more or let it go
Like we've been doing before
All this shits been done before.
