Tin Pan Boy

作曲 : Matt Shwartz/Dominic Harrison

This huge construction project could change the character of areas

On this road forever

That's the worry at least to people once known as tin pan alley

You found a carousel to ride around

But you get bored so you tear it down

Like a kid in a playground putting sand in their mouth

Spit it out when you're feeling fickle

And I want to say it shouldn't work that way

People's lives ain't a game just coz you can pay

Smoking your big fat cigar

***** hat cravat and four birds on your arm

I'm just a tin pan boy do you want to take that toy

Hey

You Mr. Developer

Hey

You Mr. Developer

You're just a tin town toy a big fat boy

Hey

You Mr. Inheritor

Crook Hook Mr. Proprietor

You kick the small kid off the monkey bars

Take your mess out of his specs and the size of his arm

Force him to dress in black then make him hold your holster

Whilst you shoot in the back

You will say I'm only writing songs

Son get off of your are and get a proper job

And snigger at my beat up boots

But I tell you Sir I'm coming after you in fiction

I'm just a tin pan boy please don't take my toys

Hey You Mr. Developer

Hey You Mr. Developer

You're just a tin town toy a big fat boy

Hey You Mr. Inheritor Mr. Proprietor

I'm just a tin pan boy please don't take my toys

You're just a tin town toy a big fat boy

Hey

Hey boy
