Hooverville (胡佛村) - The Christians[00:00:00]
The doubt of work sends the out of work man[00:00:16]
To city a hope and a home[00:00:19]
One door shuts here another two slam[00:00:23]
Yes he's homeless he's hopeless alone[00:00:27]
Row upon row of a castle in Spain[00:00:31]
Make up a fool's paradise[00:00:35]
A still born brainchild of a main with no brain[00:00:38]
The ballot box baby that died[00:00:42]
Oh Hooverville and they promised us the world[00:00:44]
In Hooverville yes they promised us the world[00:00:51]
Crying for the moon[00:00:59]
Now dirty faced children sit in the road[00:01:01]
But the shanty town shacks they call home[00:01:04]
The comfort of knowing they won't be there long[00:01:08]
Is the only comfort they know[00:01:12]
A young scream a young dream is lost in the night[00:01:16]
Along with the young will to live[00:01:19]
Along with the masses that gave up the fight[00:01:23]
A fight for a reason to live[00:01:27]
Oh Hooverville and they promised us the world[00:01:29]
In Hooverville said the streets[00:01:36]
Were paved with silver and gold[00:01:40]
Oh Hooverville and they promised us[00:01:44]
A roof above our heads[00:01:49]
In Hooverville[00:01:51]
And like fools we believed every last word they said[00:01:54]
I for the roof[00:01:59]
And they promised us a word[00:02:20]
And they promised us a roof above our heads[00:02:27]
And they promised us a word[00:02:35]
And like fools we believed every last word they said[00:02:42]
Oh Hooverville and they promised us the world[00:03:02]
In Hooverville said the streets[00:03:10]
Were paved with silver and gold[00:03:13]
Oh Hooverville[00:03:17]
And they promised us a roof above our heads[00:03:20]
In Hooverville[00:03:25]
And as fools we believed every last word they said[00:03:27]
Their hope is so high when they arrive[00:03:33]
Their hope is their only possession in life[00:03:36]
Another man dies another man cries[00:03:41]
Mr Politician open up you eyes[00:03:44]
