The opera is over

Singers have all gone home

Seats are empty

The kitchen is closed



The sidewalks are sprayed down

The blinds are pulled down

The foundation's unstable

The wrecking ball is back

Quiet business vacancy

Quiet business vacancy



Rents are rising

Our lease is up

Culture is down



Symphony's concluded

The instruments are all cased up

The notes are silent

The music's still apparent



Rents are rising

Our lease is up

Culture is down

Spirits are jaded



Art is dying

Is art dead?

Art is dying

Is it dead?

Believe it

We need it to move on



A one track mind in a one way town

Let's go ahead and gentrify

We let art die with robot minds

Steal the brush and paint boundary lines



A stale kind the people we'll find

Walking in single file line

I think its time to finally rewind

Lets go ahead we might as well



Rents are rising

Our lease is up

Culture is down

Spirits are jaded
