Housing in a Bubble

Housing in a Bubble
Astral Cloud Ashes

It's never been the same since they bought this place,
No-one thought the town would change,
A few have got cash in the attic,
But income's erratic.
They said we'd see the market gain traction,
But Frank on the corner's now making a fraction.
He says he thinks we're all in trouble
'Cause the housing's in a bubble.
We're out for rational action,
Forget the transaction,

I've never been the same since I bought the rubble,
They told me it would double,
They told me it would grow exponentially,
And infinitely,
So when the truth hit me,
That this was all built to fail,
Everything I own sinking, like whales in the deep sea,
Sinking the whole of the money tree,
Completely.

No housing de-lousing
Work drowsy
Just to feel lousy,
Announcing, just browsing, is all I can afford to do.

I'm going to build me a new house,
I'll do this myself,
I just need somewhere for me and my girls
I'm going to lay the foundation,
It's me against the world.
I just need somewhere.

No housing, de-lousing,
Work drowsy, just to feel lousy,
Announcing, just browsing,
It's all I ever wanted to do.
