Track 2 of Animus Sessions: The Dead of Winter.

lyrics

Chorus
Kids: The man came to our house and knocked on our door,
he said he had tried but he'd take it no more,
The world was beautiful; our building was not,
The Man: "So tell you what, I'll take it and fix it up"
Kids: Yeah, we could trust that smile...
Just right for drowning us in the Nile/denial...
HelioS: Ok, this is how it went...
The man came to our house and bust in the door,
he lied that he had tried but he couldn't anymore,
The allure of big business was just too much,
So he'd sell the house: kick his guap up a notch,
Yeah, kick his guap up a notch, kick his guap up a notch

Verse 1
So he sent in his soldiers to "HURRY IT UP!
THROW THEIR STUFF OUT IF THEY WON'T PICK IT UP!
I DON'T CARE IF YOU'RE RELATED, YOU KNOW THE DRILL!
MARCH RIGHT OUTSIDE AND YOU'LL SEE HOW THEY'LL FEEL!
Scared that these dogs just might not heel,
rip them to shreds and still walk out free.
So you know they'll only take the bare necessities,
when they realize their life might be in jeopardy.

Chorus
Kids: The man came to our house and knocked on our door,
he said he had tried but he'd take it no more,
The world was beautiful; our building was not,
The Man: "So tell you what, I'll take it and fix it up"
Kids: Yeah, we could trust that smile...
Just right for drowning us in the Nile/denial...
Shh, this is how it really went guys...
The man came to our house and bust in the door,
he lied that he had tried but he couldn't anymore,
The allure of big business was just too much,
So he'd sell the house: kick his guap up a notch,
Yeah, kick his guap up a notch, kick his guap up a notch

Verse 2
So we moved to a new and improved place,
really just a nice word for the change of pace,
"Ok, we've got water but what about the light?
I haven't watched Ben 10 yet and you know that ain't right!"
Yeah? well get ready for misery kid,
Cuz you won't get water for the next three weekends,
You'll have to fetch water from a well,
and get it up so watch out for the steps!

The man came to our house and-never mind,
We all knew the truth, he was never kind,
he was in cahoots with the private guys,
so we might as well stop it with the lies,
But still, it was not that bad,
on a hot day, sleeveless shirts were the fad,
I'd turn the corner to get some shade and sweets,
from the Mallams who set up shop from up the street,
I you kept walking, you'd reach a round clearing,
It's where all the shops are if you lost your bearings,
The internet cafe on the right, the barbershop on the left,
how I miss those days, surprisingly they're my best,
my favorites, I can see it all now,
the arcade always with the large crowd,
the store where I got my Harry Potter cards...

Me: The man came to our house and knocked on our door,
he opened it and I kicked him in the balls,
The world was beautiful and he was a sore,
So i pushed him off the floor; he won't bother no more.
