"Lehigh Acres" lyrics
"Lehigh Acres"
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Vacant lots and boarded up windows
Garbage piled up at the curb
There's a bank foreclosure notice taped to your front door
Who else is to blame for your own short sighted fate, kid?
What you could afford was never enough. You had to have more.
And now you're facing this new reality
You're learning lessons that can only be taught through poverty.
Florida Dreaming.
Easy money in the sunshine state.
Florida Dreaming.
The life you always wanted.
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
Million dollar high-rise condominiums
Look down over gold coast streams
While Henrietta Hughes begs the President for a home
Yeah, there's no end in sight, just a tropical third world
Has the volume of wealth ever excused such abhorred gluttony?
And now you're facing this new reality
You're learning lessons that can only be taught through poverty.
Florida Dreaming.
Easy money in the sunshine state.
Florida Dreaming.
The life you've always wanted.
Florida Dreaming.
Florida Dreaming.
Florida Dreaming.
The life you've always wanted: Cut me offs.

Propagandhi - "Fuck The Border" A friend of mine dropped me a line,
it said, "man, I gotta run to the USA. I got no money, got no job."

but what...
The Lawrence Arms - "Quincentuple Your Money" There's a letter at my mother's house, came with a folded flag.
It says right now, I'm coming home in a body bag.
It's a pride and a pain that are one and the same.
It's a burning cigarette, it's a...

And the feeling in my stomachs like a knife in my back
And it's too damn short for me to get a grip
