Slumlord lyrics

Artist  : D.r.i 
Song : Slumlord
 

Old battered building
Ready to
condemn
High valued property
Expensive
piece of land

Half filled with
tenants
All poor on welfare
No heat or
electricity
And slumlord doesn't
care

Slumlord doesn't care 
(X2)

Millions in insurance
Covers the
wrecked lot
And a week 'til it's
condemned
Is all slumlord's got

He
enters the basement
With three gallons of
gas
And four hours later
There's nothing
left but ash

Slumlord doesn't care 
(X2)

The newspapers all read
Forty die
in blaze
Slumlord now thinks
That crime
really pays

And two years later
A
skyscraper appears
With a plaque in the
memory
Of the forty that died
here

Slumlord doesn't care  (X2)
