Apartmentland
Your life is like an apartment
Cuz everybody's gonna get a bigger one
Everybody's gonna put down some money
But ain't nobody moving on too soon
See, As far as I see
We're all staying here
Having illegal barbeques and
We're all living
In ApartmentLand
I got a ceiling so you got a floor
I got a window, you got a door
It's got a peekhole so you can see
If the pizza guy is who he oughtta be
He lives three doors down
Saving his tips
Buying all his clothes second-hand
But he can't get out
Of ApartmentLand
One day soon we're gonna get out
Gonna bring somebody else's property values down
Try to keep up with inflation
Turning us into apartment nation
It's a Steinbeck novel of the semi-dispossessed
The grapes of discomfort and settling for less
Tom Joad don't belong here
He's just passing through
He don't like the neighbors and he don't like you
And you don't like him
But with the walls paper-thin
You just gotta do what you can
Gettin' by
In ApartmentLand
Sheetrock separates us
The homeowners hate us
You just gotta do what you can
Gettin' by
In ApartmentLand
Cuz everybody's gonna get a bigger one
Everybody's gonna put down some money
But ain't nobody moving on too soon
See, As far as I see
We're all staying here
Having illegal barbeques and
We're all living
In ApartmentLand
I got a ceiling so you got a floor
I got a window, you got a door
It's got a peekhole so you can see
If the pizza guy is who he oughtta be
He lives three doors down
Saving his tips
Buying all his clothes second-hand
But he can't get out
Of ApartmentLand
One day soon we're gonna get out
Gonna bring somebody else's property values down
Try to keep up with inflation
Turning us into apartment nation
It's a Steinbeck novel of the semi-dispossessed
The grapes of discomfort and settling for less
Tom Joad don't belong here
He's just passing through
He don't like the neighbors and he don't like you
And you don't like him
But with the walls paper-thin
You just gotta do what you can
Gettin' by
In ApartmentLand
Sheetrock separates us
The homeowners hate us
You just gotta do what you can
Gettin' by
In ApartmentLand
