Gentrification Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Standing on corner, spending my time
Out of a job, not earning a dime
Lady steps up, says "I suppose
You're a stylish young man by the looks of your clothes"

[Verse 2]
She said "Trust me and take a little tip
This building's been sold to Johnny Depp"
Who? "Take the buyout, relocate
The Google-men are coming downtown, so don't be late"

[Verse 3]
I said "This is my apartment, just a hole in the wall
Got to sleep in the kitchen with your feets in the hall
No hot water, no windows and doors
You got to make it past all the real estate agents, junkies and hoes"

[Verse 4]
I live in the heart of the city, ain't no coffee shops around
I heard them Google-men drink so much coffee, I declare, I think they might drown
Gentrification is here, one thing I know
You can't stand pat, I declare you got to step it up and go

[Outro]
Gentrification is here, sho' is worryin' my mind
Can't understand why an uptown Google-man wants a downtown room like mine
Gentrification
