lyrics

It was a low rent paradise
Rough and ready but you better look twice
We hooked it up and called it home

Move along / Miss my freak scene


DIY for a discount price
Didn't last long but we rolled the dice
When the empty streets were ours to roam

Move along / Miss my freak scene

If you wanted to make the rounds life's easy you don't have to walk too far
Watch them building an art messiah
When your neighbors were all old friends, and you knew you'd see them down at the bar
If you wanted to capture sound go two doors down to record a shooting star

It was a low rent paradise
Rough and ready but you better look twice
We hooked it up and called it home

Move along,
Head to Polly's and drink your breakfast just in time to make the scene
Move along
Lost the lease on your old apartment? Baby just call Jody Green

Move along
Two guys turn a burnt-out store front into Soul Brothers' pizza dream
Move along
Once they fixed it up got kicked to the curb to suit their fat cat landlord's schemes

Move along
Climbed to your window and he had a machete but don't let that freak you out
Move along
We'd just head down to find his daddy ask what that was all about

Spare a little change for the homeless
We all remember our friend Bill's refrain
But there's no room for the homeless round here no more
Can't squeeze them in between the condos and the fucking chains

Music everywhere along with pawnshops and despair an easy payday loan but one you can't repay
No more lawn chairs out on the corner but you can buy a seat at any overpriced cafe

They gobble up the poor and all the people not like them and then they move on next to eat the middle class
I'm waiting for the day when I can tell them all it's their turn
That they've had their chance
And now it's time for them to move along

Move along
