Carry On

They came into the city with the dollar on their minds
Companies erupting like there was no end in sight
A dot-com here and a million there
Something's gotta give but we had to know when
They came in swarms from coast to coast
Looking for success at cost for them to boast
Wealthy incomes drive costs sky high
Now they're all gone but the price survives
Dense population no jobs to be had
A five dollar beer and a kick in the head
They came in swarms from coast to coast
Looking for success at cost for them to boast
Wealthy incomes drive costs sky high
Now they're all gone but the price survives
Dense population no jobs to be had
A five dollar beer and a kick in the head
They came in swarms from coast to coast
Looking for success at cost for them to boast
I've seen empty buildings fall
Now they're all gone
We carry on, we carry on
The greedy landlords stand alone
Fortune has gone but we're still here
Through the rubble left we carry on
We carry on

Now an MBA pours my beer at the bar
A CEO pumps the gas for my car
Fill up the housing raise the cost of living
They all forgot this is our city
