There Goes the Neighborhood
Lyrics
There goes the neighborhood
(Ha ha ha ah ha ha ha ha ha)
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
Believe me
I cannot live freely
They're gentrifying all our communities
And when they try to take my land from me they‘ll say I’m insane
But I have nothing left to lose therefore they’ll feel no shame
There goes the neighborhood
People come in and people leave out
But never was you born around here
Or lived in a drought
But yet you wanna move around here
And don’t like the scene
But you will not take culture from me
Or appropriate me at all
So tell me Mr. mayor could you please send help
Since you don’t think it’s time for change
How bout you fuck yourself
How bout we put them on a bus
And give them neighborhood tours
Because you tryna gentrify some shit that wasn’t yours
(There goes the neighborhood)
Believe me
I cannot live freely
They're gentrifying all our communities
And when they try to take my land from me they‘ll say I’m insane
But I have nothing left to lose therefore they’ll feel no shame
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
(Ha ha ha ah ha ha ha ha ha)
There goes the neighborhood
(How bout you fuck yourself)
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
(Ha ha ha ah ha ha ha ha ha)
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
Believe me
I cannot live freely
They're gentrifying all our communities
And when they try to take my land from me they‘ll say I’m insane
But I have nothing left to lose therefore they’ll feel no shame
There goes the neighborhood
People come in and people leave out
But never was you born around here
Or lived in a drought
But yet you wanna move around here
And don’t like the scene
But you will not take culture from me
Or appropriate me at all
So tell me Mr. mayor could you please send help
Since you don’t think it’s time for change
How bout you fuck yourself
How bout we put them on a bus
And give them neighborhood tours
Because you tryna gentrify some shit that wasn’t yours
(There goes the neighborhood)
Believe me
I cannot live freely
They're gentrifying all our communities
And when they try to take my land from me they‘ll say I’m insane
But I have nothing left to lose therefore they’ll feel no shame
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
There goes the neighborhood
(Ha ha ha ah ha ha ha ha ha)
There goes the neighborhood
(How bout you fuck yourself)
There goes the neighborhood
