One Street Back - Live
Painting words on cardboard, we will tell them
Armed with chants and finance, we will help them
Tight inside our moral highs, we're seldom
Though we know
Until the system's overthrown
Some-ol'-kun will get to call this home
We're complicit, and we know
Yeah, we know
While the gentry remain in control
One street back will get carved up and sold
We're complicit, and we know
Don't let them erase your past for present
But we're grateful for the hosing of the pavement
Yeah maybe our economy will help them
Though we know
Until the system's overthrown
Some-ol'-kun will get to call this home
We're complicit, and we know
Yeah, we know
While the gentry remain in control
One street back will get carved up and sold
We're complicit, and we know
The banners come down and the rates go up
The facepaint comes off and
Facebook comes on
Our actions will fade
And our addictions endure
But for now we're here to solve a problem
It breaks my heart to watch while we just rob them
Though we know
Until the system's overthrown
Some-ol'-kun will get to call this home
We're complicit, and we know
Yeah, we know
While the gentry remain in control
One street back will get carved up and sold
We're complicit, and we know
We know
We know
We know
We know
We know
We know
We know
Armed with chants and finance, we will help them
Tight inside our moral highs, we're seldom
Though we know
Until the system's overthrown
Some-ol'-kun will get to call this home
We're complicit, and we know
Yeah, we know
While the gentry remain in control
One street back will get carved up and sold
We're complicit, and we know
Don't let them erase your past for present
But we're grateful for the hosing of the pavement
Yeah maybe our economy will help them
Though we know
Until the system's overthrown
Some-ol'-kun will get to call this home
We're complicit, and we know
Yeah, we know
While the gentry remain in control
One street back will get carved up and sold
We're complicit, and we know
The banners come down and the rates go up
The facepaint comes off and
Facebook comes on
Our actions will fade
And our addictions endure
But for now we're here to solve a problem
It breaks my heart to watch while we just rob them
Though we know
Until the system's overthrown
Some-ol'-kun will get to call this home
We're complicit, and we know
Yeah, we know
While the gentry remain in control
One street back will get carved up and sold
We're complicit, and we know
We know
We know
We know
We know
We know
We know
We know
