Bilingual
Affordable housin' near the airport
Watchin' planes go by, but you can never board
'Cause your money's tight
Is it a sick joke? On welfare right near the runway
But I think I got the answer
Move the rich right there, and they can prosper
Make the plane on time, sad irony
Staring out the window of economy, eh
Hello, tell me all the things you would change, my dear
If you had some golden shears
What would be the first cut?
You know, well, if we saw the rain with blood and tears
Could we still hold it dear?
Would it have ever been cut?
The bookstore became a brewery
And the coffee shop is sellin' jewelry
'Cause mom and pop can't afford the new lease
Joni Mitchell said it first in '70, yellow taxi
Positively, I need a little more positivity
As I sip my beer in the parking lot
At the new store, bought for some, alright
In fact, it's quite nice in the light
Hello, tell me all the things you would change, my dear
If you had some golden shears
What would be the first cut?
You know, well, if we saw the rain with blood and tears
Could we still hold it dear?
Would it have ever been cut?
Hello, tell me all the things you would change, my dear
If you had some golden shears
What would be the first cut?
You know, well, if we saw the rain with blood and tears
Could we still hold it dear?
Would it have ever been cut?
