Stop
The Rent
The tear drop on your cheek you never meant
the rain drops on your street of cracked cement
the hat that I was wearing got cold and wet
when I said I love you, did you raise the rent
It’s easy to believe what you never meant
it’s easy to retrieve what you never sent
it’s easier to leave when you came and went
when I said I love you, did you raise the rent
Come on pass me by like the other men
come on pass me by like the other men
they voted on your crime in the parliament
when I said I love you, did you raise the rent
