Here Comes the Neighborhood

I work on belmont, but i live in wicker park

All my friends are bartenders in all the coolest bars

My girlfriend's in the coolest band that you've ever seen they play

The empty bottle every week.

Live got everything i need.

My loft, my motorcycle,

My hip restaurant down the street

And my neighbors are all artists or hot girls over 18 who needs community

When you live right in your scene?

From jinx to betty's blue star,

Everybody knows my name from north avenue down to augusta

Everybody's all the same

It's a playground fueled by beer no chicagoans live here.

It's geography ound tightly by big city dreams.

And when the property value's raised you'll be on your merry ways like the poor Outclassed families before you you've already paved ashland

To western chicago to north avenue congratulations kids,

Your shallow model city is sinking.

You've become what you swore that you'd never be.
