The landlord’s here to visit They’re blasting disco down below Sez, “I’m doubling the rent Cos the building’s condemned You’re gonna help me buy City Hall” But we can, you know we can We can, you know we can Let’s lynch the landlord man
I tell them “turn on the water” I tell ‘em “turn on the heat” Tells me “All you ever do is complain” Then they search the place when I’m not here But we can, you know we can Let’s lynch the landlord Let’s lynch the landlord Let’s lynch the landlord man
There’s rats chewin’ up the kitchen Roaches up to my knees Turn the over on, it smells like Dachau, yeah ‘Til the rain pours through the ceiling But we can, you know we can Let’s lynch the landlord, man
