Profiteers - Fiddler's Green[00:00:00]

There's a cold wind blowing through the old east side[00:00:10]

And it cuts with the devils's curse[00:00:12]

They' re turning our people into the streets[00:00:14]

While the landlords line their purse[00:00:16]

With the greenback dollar of the tourist trade[00:00:18]

There's a fortune to be had[00:00:20]

Make way for the out-of-towners[00:00:22]

For the tenants it's just too bad[00:00:24]

This appears to be their attitude kick'em until they're down[00:00:35]

They're only welfare cases and pensioners[00:00:38]

And they're easily pushed around[00:00:41]

We invited the world to come and stay[00:00:43]

And celebrate the fair[00:00:45]

I wonder if the world will understand[00:00:47]

The homeless walking there[00:00:49]

I'm alright Jack and how about you [00:00:51]

Gonna catch me a wave that's rolling through[00:00:55]

And turn a trick or two[00:00:57]

I'm alright Jack no flies on me[00:01:00]

I'm within my rights my conscience clear[00:01:04]

I am the profiteer[00:01:06]

The sign says closed for renovations [00:01:16]

This is a con we all see through[00:01:18]

It spreads like a poison through the town [00:01:20]

Monkey see and monkey do[00:01:21]

Turn your slum into a mine squeeze[00:01:24]

Them hard for every dime[00:01:26]

The people will paint you criminals [00:01:28]

But you just can't see the crime[00:01:30]

I'm alright Jack and how about you [00:01:32]

Gonna catch me a wave that's rolling through[00:01:36]

And turn a trick or two[00:01:38]

I'm alright Jack no flies on me[00:01:40]

I'm within my rights my conscience clear[00:01:44]

I am the profiteer[00:01:46]

They're all bastards with no morals[00:01:56]

Overcome by a pitiful greed[00:01:58]

For years they've taken rent from the tenants[00:02:00]

Now they bite the hand that feeds[00:02:02]

Easily turned a blind eye to all pain and despair[00:02:04]

And I hope when the rush is over that[00:02:08]

Their gold mines all stand bare[00:02:10]

I'm alright Jack and how about you [00:02:13]

Gonna catch me a wave that's rolling through[00:02:16]

And turn a trick or two[00:02:19]

I'm alright Jack no flies on me[00:02:21]

I'm within my rights my conscience clear[00:02:25]

I am the profiteer[00:02:27]

I'm alright Jack[00:02:37]

I'm alright Jack[00:02:39]

I'm alright Jack[00:02:41]

I'm alright Jack[00:02:43]
