Tears of a Landlord
The range of your pathos:
it's a pitiful thing.
I think they call that a whitewash,
cos you've been raking it in,
Strategies and calculations,
painted smiles and simulations.
I think they call that a whitewash; you've been raking it in, raking it in.
No-one likes the tears of a landlord!
Draw some hearts on a spreadsheet
with a theatrical sigh.
These creeds looked good on a t-shirt,
but their use has expired.
I think about death when you genuflect.
No one likes the tears of a landlord!
