Peering eyes, they never rest
Through their windows, a constant test
Watching us, every move
In their sights, they disapprove
Volume low, the film's soft sound
Still they ask, to turn it down
Whispers echo like a shout
"Turn it off!" they always tout
Grass so neat, yet they complain
"Keep on mowing," they say again
Even though it's trimmed just right
They never give us any respite
They won't let us live in peace
We don't feel like we can breathe
Every step we take they track
Cut the grass, cut the grass, never any slack
Let us live in peace, in peace, in peace
In peace!! Let us live in peace!
In peace! In peace! Let us live in peace!
Inspectors come, one by one
Again and again, it's never done
Round they go, on their tour
Never any faults, that's for sure
Contractors tread, our sacred ground
No heads up, they just come around
In our garden, unannounced
Police we nearly had to pronounce
Broken boiler, cold showers endure
They won't fix, their hearts impure
Shivering, we make our plea
Ignored, as always, in cold misery
They won't let us live in peace
We don't feel like we can breathe
Every step we take they track
Cut the grass, cut the grass, never any slack
Let us live in peace, in peace, in peace
In peace
An eviction note, without a cause
Their cold hearts, without a pause
Out we go, we have no choice
But we're free at last, let us rejoice
Accusations, walls they scan
"Different color?" Not our plan
We laugh, photos in hand
Try to scam us, we understand
Deposit claimed, their final try
But we're armed, with proof they can't deny
A thousand photos, our defense
Not a penny lost, their recompense
Farewell, landlords at number two
Thank f*ck we'll never have to deal with you
