The landlord's here to visit

They're blasting disco down below

Sez, "I'm doubling the rent

Cuz the buildings condemned

You're gonna help me buy City Hall"



But we can, you know we can

We can, you know we can

Let's lynch the landlord man



I tell them turn on the water

I tell them turn on the heat

Tells me "All you ever do is complain"

Then they search the place when I'm not here



But we can, you know we can

Let's lynch the landlord

Let's lynch the landlord

Let's lynch the landlord man



There's rats chewin' up the kitchen

Roaches up to my knees

Turn the oven on, it smells like Dachau

Til' the rain pours through the ceiling



But we can, you know we can

Let's lynch the landlord man
