"Garbage Land" lyrics

Scurry through the streets looking for an old bagel
They don't need an invite for a seat down at the table
A piece of pastrami, half eaten wonton
Living in a bar playing karaoke songs
Chewing on a sludge filled Boston creme donut
They don't give a fuck, and they're making sure you know it
Fighting with a pigeon for a piece of rotten cheese
Waiting on the train down at Christopher Street

In a garbage bag, rats eat pizza slices
Garbage can (garbage can), rats, they understand
Garbage land, ripped in fucked up places
Garbage plan (it's a garbage plan), they don't give a damn

Jumping out the trash like a rodent clown car
Filling up the streets like a drum of spilled tar
Liddle liddle lee, all the way to Greenwich village
They stalk at night, they steal, they fucking pillage
Upper class rats with a feather in their cap
A cardboard castle with a moat and mouse traps
A slice from Joe's or a pork soup dumpling
A gift from the dumpster and it's fit for a rat king

In a garbage bag, rats eat pizza slices
Garbage can, rats, they understand
Garbage land, ripped in fucked up places (keep it going)
Garbage plan (how does anyone live here anymore), they don't give a damn

Couldn't pay the rent cuz' the prices started hiking
And now the MTA approved congestive pricing
The rats had to leave, cuz' they couldn't pay their taxes
And New York City became a ghost town

Brooklyn, from the Bronx, all the way to Staten Island
They didn't stay long, but not for lack of trying
They hopped a trash barge to Newark, New Jersey
They tried to start a plague, but they ended up with scurvy

In a garbage bag, rats eat pizza slices
Garbage can (garbage cans), rats, they understand (understand)
Garbage land, ripped in fucked up places
Garbage plan (what a garbage plan), they don't give a damn (oh)
In a garbage bag, rats eat pizza slices
Garbage can, rats, they understand
Garbage land, ripped in fucked up places
Garbage plan, they don't give a damn
