about

I hear all this stuff about how awful landlords are, tenants can be pretty terrible too. This is my lived experience.

lyrics

One little heart broken in two
Things aren’t working so here’s what you do
Come for a while stay at my place
And it’s all for free

Two little hearts on different roads
Come together to lighten your load
There’s a place with a porch and a big back yard
And it’s all for free
Smoke cigarettes, Watch cable tv
Drink a 12 pac of beer, but don’t mind me
I’ll just fix my toilet that you destroyed
And that’s free too!

Three little hearts all alone
When you can’t make it on your own
Take out your frustrations on kitchen walls
And that’s free as well

Now four little hearts and the money is tight
You can stay right here, and it’s all right
Tell your cousins, and the neighbor, and the neighbor’s dog
That they can stay for free too!
Just blame the system blame the schools
Blame the judge, all those fools
Blame everybody for another 30 days
While you live for free!

You know what I like, it’s so much fun
To work three jobs and when I’m done
I can leave my family and take care of yours
And that’s free too!

One little heart broken in two
Things aren’t working so here’s what you do
Come for a while stay at my place
And it’s all for free
