Gentrification Galore

You can see it everywhere
Spreading faster than fast food
More than anyone can bear
In the smallest neighbourhood
It is

Gentrification galore
Gentrification hardcore

Tensions
Tensions

Towers keep on rising
Hippies keep on sighing
Clients keep on buying
And forests keep on dying
It is

Gentrification galore
Gentrification evermore

A new bourgeoisie is here
She's a lower-middle class wannabe
She hears the call but cannot ignore
All that capitalism has in store, in store

Tensions
Tensions

Check the newest shopping mall
By that tacky little theme park
It's a thousand storey tall
And some even call it "Art"
It is

Gentrification galore
Gentrification encore

A new bourgeoisie is here
She's a lower-middle class wannabe
She hears the call but cannot ignore
All that capitalism has in store, in store

Gases keep on rising
Workers keep on sighing
Traders keep on buying
And jungles keep on dying
It is

Gentrification galore
Gentrification makes me sore

A new bourgeoisie is here
With its rotten and posh mentality
She sees the wall but chooses to ignore
All that minimalism has in store

There's no turning back or else life would be a bore
Besides we have a culture to adore
I witness the damage it's causing and deplore
All that gentrification galore, galore, galore, galore
