geoff berner - condos lyrics

Loading...

my city has been in a housing crisis
for fifteen years or more
middle class families can’t afford to live here
and there’s a ten thousand dollar fine
for being poor
they said if we let them build all these condo towers
the market would pull down the rent
now we’ve got the most expensive city
on the whole d+mn continent
our mayor says he wants eco density
and of course it’s a sin not to be green
but when mayor happy planet says eco density
what does he really mean?

he means
sunday, condos
monday, condos
tuesday and wednesday
condos
thursday, friday
a few more condos
sat+rday, for a change
condos

what happened to a thousand culture buildings and counting?
they knocked them down to build some condos
and the social housing on little mountain?
get rid of it!
(we need more condos.)
the ridge, richards, the capital
that’s a special kind of condos—
the kind of condos that you call
after the thing that you knocked down to make the
sunday, condos
monday, condos
tuesday and wednesday
condos
thursday, friday
a few more condos
sat+rday, for a change
townhouse condominiums

what’s the plan for the georgia viaduct?
well, they’re gonna knock it down and build some condos
and why’s the city four hundred million dollars on the hook? +++++they’re f+cked!
they paid some guys to build olympic condos

and what about the sacred burial site?
not as sacred as condos
till the musqueam nation actually put up a fight
and that’s how you stop the condos

so what’s going to happen now, for god’s sake?
are we just going to let them build more condos?
or could there be a time when we finally put the brakes
on vancouver’s mad sickness for

sunday, condos
monday, condos
tuesday and wednesday
condos
thursday, friday
a few more condos
sat+rday, for a change
market artist live/work studios
