Houses! houses! who wants some houses ?
Holiday homes for the upper class...
Suited up liars, greedy bastards,
Gonna buy your village, gonna buy your past.
The gap gets bigger, the rich get richer,
The more they get and the more they want,
The world's for sale, and you're worth nothing,
So shut up, be grateful, and pay your rent.
We're sick and tired of these grasping mentalities,
We want fair housing for everyone,
No more homelessness and no more disparities
Keep your hands off our homes!
Yuppies! yuppies! curse of the cities,
You think you're clever but you bring no good,
Useless fucks causing rent increase,
Sucking life out of the neighbourhood
Landlord ! Go fuck yourself !
You're only living off the people's sweat,
You're so pissed off when the rent is due,
But you're never here when we need you !
Squat evictions, gentrification,
Forced displacement of the needy nation,
To the outskirts, the suburbs, the barren land,
Far from the seaside, and far from towns.
Hide them, Hound them, let's hunt the poor,
'I like these people ! but not next door !'
A nice clean area is what you dream of,
A cultural void for your own self comfort...
We won't get silenced, we'll face your whims,
You can't hide misery, you can't buy peace,
Reclaim the land, reclaim the streets,
Make some noise so they won't get no sleep!

Hmmm. I thought maybe there was a brief nod on “Security” to The Effigies song of the same name. Probably a coincidence. Looking forward to the new LP! Joe
