England is your land, England is my land 
From the shopping centre to the bandstand
From the football stadium to the public library
England was made for you and me
This town is our town, this town is free
So why are you acting like you own Eastleigh
You're buying up houses like Monopoly
But you're playing with our lives and our smalltown dreams
This town is our town, this town is free
So why are you acting like you own Eastleigh
You're buying up houses like Monopoly
But you're playing with our lives and our smalltown dreams
Back from Los Angeles
But London ain't a vibe with Covid-19
So I jumped in my Skoda from A to Be in Eastleigh
Look out for my bro with his disabilities
A roof over our head, a place to sleep
But then the roof started falling on the balcony
Concrete falling from 30 feet
The doctor said it woulda killed us clean
Not to mention the old granny who lives beneath
Who'd already been fleeced 
By this 'Property Management Company'
That wouldn't fix it
We asked "Can we fix it?" "No you can't"
Don't even start, if they own the land
You can't even fix your own roof
You lease the building, yeah that's the truth 
They do nothing and charge you their weight in gold
Look it up: it's called 'Fleecehold'
This town is our town, this town is free
So why are you acting like you own Eastleigh
You're buying up houses like Monopoly
But you're playing with our lives and our smalltown dreams
This town is our town, this town is free
So why are you acting like you own Eastleigh
You're buying up houses like Monopoly
But you're playing with our lives and our smalltown dreams
There ain't no pictures of you online so let me describe:
You look like the Monopoly Guy and you act like him too
Collecting money's about all that you do
You shut down the Residents Group
One attempted suicide, you still threatened to sue
Old & lonely how you like 'em
13-grand for a lick of paint by Granny's nightstand
This stuff ain't secret it's on the newsstand
But people switch to the Kardashians
Idolise the rich and their vulgar fashions
Zooming round in you Ferrari, it ain't hard to see
Where you got that Patagonia fleece
You own the land, and you rent the lease
No recourse to the law, it's the same story
Robbers get richer as long as we've got the Tories
In the meantime, let's do something concrete
Before you buy or rent, find out who owns the concrete
Upon which it stands
And if you're already run by a Fleecehold
Kick 'em out like a can, if you can
This town is our town, this town is free
So why are you acting like you own Eastleigh
You're buying up houses like Monopoly
But you're playing with our lives and our smalltown dreams
This town is our town, this town is free
So why are you acting like you own Eastleigh
You're buying up houses like Monopoly
But you're playing with our lives and our smalltown dreams
Won't mention your names 'cause you're liable to wear a suit
Eastleigh Council got authority, like Jackie Weaver in a zoom
Nah: this is bigger than you & me
This is the fire at Grenfell, it's the hoarders of PPE
It's the music industry crushing dreams
It's Ludlow Music even monetising Woody Guthrie
What about me? My only property
Is of my limited brain capacity 
"Write it. Sing it. Swing to it. Yodel it." For free
Just mention that I wrote it
Come and see my shows, buy a physical copy
If I get enough dough I'll buy a place in Eastleigh
It's a roof for someone else to sleep safely
'Cause this town is my town, this town is free
This is smalltown England
(England was made for you and me)
England is your land, England is my land 
From the shopping centre to the bandstand
From the football stadium to the public library
England was made for you and me
