Co-Op

[All]
At the co-op
It's Beaux-Arts under scaffolding
Co-op
The staff can't do anything
Co-op
But they might still strike this spring
That's the gossip at the mail drop
Here in our co-op

[Robbie, spoken]
Whose package is this?
Something from Overnight Insulin Emergency Providers?
Going once, twice?
Nope? Okay, garbage time!
Bye bye, box!

[All]
Co-op
Why's the water shut off today?
Co-op
The super just walked away
Co-op
I'd rather squat in a loft than stay in this one-stop flop
Called a co-op

22 floors and a roof deck that's off limits
160 units managed by a staff of dimwits
We pay a king's ransom for a one-bedroom tomb
But you can sort of see the Chrysler from the window
In your room
The window in your room

And you don't own any land, just a box in the sky
(Yeah, yeah yeah)
The neighbor's cooking kasha and your other neighbor died
(Yeah, yeah yeah)
Moving here felt lucky but that time is forgot
But you'll never give up your spot
At the co-op
Our blessing the co-op
