Realest​-​Hate

lyrics

i awoke this morning to a knocking at my door, i rolled right out of bed and i crawled across the floor, a man without emotion said he'd come to bring the news, that i had been evicted and today i had to move.

within 15 minutes the bulldozers were there, i grabbed a book and my guitar and a warm jacket to wear, i jumped out through the window and i landed on the ground, just before the bulldozers knocked my apartment down.

i saw the landlords smiling sitting back to watch the show, i asked him "where exactly now am i supposed to go?", he said "where you are gonna live is no concern to me, but if you do not leave i'll have you arrested for vagrancy".

by noon the rubble cleared, the new foundations were in place, so i went to find a politician to explain my case, i burst into his office and i'll remember this forever, the landlord and the politician were there in bed together.

i felt my situation needed to be brought to light so i took it to the media to set the story right, i tried to tell the truth, i will have you understand but the way that they reported it was not how i had planned:

"homeless hippy berates honest businessman"
"crazed tenant attacks real-estate agent"
"drunken foreigner threatens patriotic landlord"
"spoilt millenial questions perfect traditions".

well, in the afternoon i looked to renting something new "do you have something available?" and they said "yes we do! a cupboard sized apartment, no windows, the toilet leaks - and all for just one human soul and 10 thousand bucks a week!".

now the sun is setting, i am weary with defeat, i need something strong to drink - perhaps a bite to eat, well yes i may be homeless but see luckily for me, they built a hip cafe where my apartment used to be.
