Another fuckin' condo goin' up
Another glass and concrete sign this city doesn't give a fuck
And there's another giant hole dug in the ground
They're buryin' what's left of this town

And there's another big old beauty comin' down
Another piece of history is gone without a sound
And it's another jewel stolen from the crown
They're rippin' out the soul of this town

Mmm

I pledge allegiance to this city I was born in
That's the one that's bein' torn down, twisted, mangled every mornin'
By these pocket-padding assholes
Who will never understand this place they're
Dealin' crooked hands in, that's the river that we stand in and

Another fuckin' bylaw just got passed
Another staple of community is headed for the blast
And it's another sign they don't want us around
I swear to god they're tryin' to kill this town

Mmm
