SUNG TO “BIG SPENDER”
THE MINUTE YOU BOUGHT OYSTER COVE
WE THOUGHT “HEY LOOK AT THIS A MAN OF DISTINCTION,
A WORLD CLASS SAILOR”
THIRD IN THE FASTNET
IN ’79,
THAT YOU WOULD JUST EVICT US DIDN’T ENTER OUR MINDS
BUT THEN YOU ZIPTIED TO OUR HOMES
“YOU’VE GOT 15 DAYS TO
SIGN YOUR RIGHTS AWAY!”
HEY JOHN KILROY
YEAH JOHN KILROY
WHO SHANGHAID
YOUR CONSCIENCE AWAY?
WAS IT ALL KINDS A FUN- FUN-FUN?
TREATING US ALL JUST LIKE SCUM, SCUM, SCUM?
DID IT GIVE YOU A -BUM- BUM- GOOD TIME!
FUN- LAUGHS -GOOD TIME!
FUN -LAUGHS -GOOD TIME!
(like “the minute you bought oyster cove”)
YEAH, BEFORE YOU- BOUGHT -UP- OUR- HOME
WE WERE TOLD BY THE- OWNER- BEFORE- YOU
AND SOUTH CITY
DON’T WORRY,
DON’T HESITATE,
TO FEEL YOU GOT A PLACE INSIDE THIS REAL-ESTATE
THEN AT ALL SHAM PUBLIC MEETS,
THEY SAID WE DON’T KNOW ABOUT ANY KINDA CHAAAANGE
HEY JOHN KILROY
HEY JOHN KILROY)
THENNNNNNN
YA KICKED US RIGHT IN OUR BRAINS!
NOW WE DON’T THINK ITS FUN- FUN- FUN
TO BE TREATED LIKE SCUM-SCUM -SCUM
YOURE NOT ACTIN LIKE
A GOOD SAILOR
LIKE A GOOD SAILOR
SO LET US GET RIGHT TO THE POINT
IF YOU FLUSH US OUT
LIKE WE’RE BILGE WATER, YOU’LL SEEEEEEEE
FOLKS WILL SEE US
THEY WAY YOU TREAT US
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAND
THEY’LL SEE YOUR CA-UHM-PANY!!!
