Song lyrics

Getting trampled under boots of progress,
Ignore the pleading of the nameless faces.
Now with our backs against the wall,
How long till we fall?

Do away with all the underprivileged,
Their demographic doesn't fit your image,
Turn your blind eye when duty calls,
How long till we fall?

In with the new!
This is something that you can't ignore!
In with the new!
A simple thing worth fighting for!
In with the new!
‘Cause now they're tearing down our doors,
So she screams out the window,
“I've had it up to here!”
So sick and tired of wondering
Where I'll be next year.

Caring less about the homeless millions,
All the petty problems that go with them,
Reap the profit that reaps their lives and
Tell me that it's fine.

Throw them out and call it relocation,
Lower-income-housing quick solution,
A generation lost.

In with the new!
This is something that you can't ignore!
In with the new!
A simple thing worth fighting for!
In with the new!
‘Cause now they're tearing down our doors,
So she screams out the window,
“I've had it up to here!”
So sick and tired of wondering
Where I'll be next year.

Now in the whirlwind of my life
Is where you presently reside,
Can I pretend you don't exist,
Maybe just for ten more minutes?
My hearts been broken into two
And rusted from years of disuse.
So will you place upon it your hands?
Will you help it beat again?

It seems the whole world's turned on me,
Bound and gagged in the land of the free.
Let's talk this over, this game is over,
In with the new, out with the old,
Hearts of the world have grown so cold.
This game is over, let's talk this over.
