lirik lagu mahogany public - boom or bust
[dirt gritie:]
we all want to be free and live righteous
capitalism has got a tight grip
on my wage, what i’m paid, what i might get
for my services, trade or my talents
living in a boom city
more jobs, education, opportunity
more immigrants with degrees and diplomas
more cab drivers and tim horton workers, yayyy
they raised the minimum wage
and lowered the g.s.t now ain’t that great
but what about the income tax
a billion plus surplus could we get some back
lowered tuitions, now how bout that
cause with the boom comes more demands
more water used up in the tar sands
more sewage and more consumption
[chorus: saint]
maybe it’s my superst-tion
but i never trust no politician
poor people always end up victim
to babylon supported system
but i say wait, wait, wait
dem time soon come
dem time soon come
but i say wait, wait, wait
dem time soon come
dem time soon come
[arlo maverick:]
picture this, i’m a man with a family
when my bills stack, ain’t n-body gonna hand me
free cash, gotta work for mine
be it robbing or thieving i worked for mine
now boom or bust, in it we trust
no t-ts, no -ss, for it we l-st
no hips, no lips for it we l-st
it sucks and sucks until we bust
[proveli paragon:]
back on my grizzle
slide my paper under the table
quit the fables
international trade is vital
you should be learning from my recital
if you really wanna compete with american dollars
holla at the godd-mn foreigners
n-body with a sin number shoulda’ been asking an immigrant like me for change
y’all need a lil’ bit of something they call
change
[chorus: saint]
maybe it’s my superst-tion
but i never trust no politician
poor people always end up victim
to babylon supported system
but i say wait, wait, wait
dem time soon come
dem time soon come
but i say wait, wait, wait
dem time soon come
dem time soon come
[arlo maverick:]
with an eco boom, that’s so outrageous
don’t you think they should up our wages?
keep saying that the province rich
that’s a lie, let me tell you what the province is
it’s a place where government makes the cash
need proof, well ask the middle cl-ss
taxed on this and taxed on that
work three jobs and you can’t save jack
[dirt gritie:]
still there’s more urban sprawl and more corruption
more services off the federal budget
more greed and politicians
more problems and indecision
slow it down let’s have an intervention
and point this ship in the right direction
before we see more cl-ss division
money can’t be our only incentive
[chorus: saint]
maybe it’s my superst-tion
but i never trust no politician
poor people always end up victim
to babylon supported system
but i say wait, wait, wait
dem time soon come
dem time soon come
but i say wait, wait, wait
dem time soon come
dem time soon come
