The Gregory Brothers - Rent: Too Damn High! Song lyrics

Welcome to the New York gubernatorial debate
I'll be your DJ this evening take it away!

I represent "The Rent is Too Damn High" Party
People working 8 hours a day
40 hours a week - some a third job - why?

The rent is too damn high!
The people I'm here to represent
Can't afford to pay their rent
'Cause rent is too damn high!
The people being laid off right now
Can't eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
Only a governor, like a father of a house
Can put everything in control
The bottom line is
The economic state of emergency
Is the way to go! The way to go!
To go, go, go, go!
This will reduce the cost
You cut the rent down
You cut the taxes down!
To give business owners the
Chance to hire people!
To give business owners the
Chance to hire people!
That is it, nothing else to be said!
End of subject
There's nothing else to talk about
Some say, I'm a one issue candidate
But it all boils down to one thing!
What? Rent!

It's too damn high!
The people I'm here to represent
Can't afford to pay their rent
'Cause rent is too damn high!
The people being laid off right now
Can't eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
Only a governor, like a father of a house
Can put everything in control
The bottom line is
The economic state of emergency
Is the way to go, the way to go!
To go, go, go, go!

Rent is too damn high!
The rent is too damn high (too damn high)
Rent is too damn high!
The rent is too damn high (too damn high)
Too damn high, too damn high, too damn high!
Rent is too damn high!
The rent is too damn high closing statement
As a karate expert
I will not talk about anyone up here listen!
Someone's child's stomach just growled
Did you hear it? Did you did you hear it?
Gotta listen like me
Because our children can't afford
To live anywhere once again, why?
You said it the rent is too damn high!
