Hooverville
Hooverville
Skrt 'round the curb in a Coupe de Ville
Do anything for a dollar bill
Hooverville
Hooverville
Coke white nails
Watch her do
Hooverville, and they promised us the world,
In Hooverville, said the streets that were paved with silver and gold,
Oh Hooverville, yes they promised us
Hooverville
Hard times have found us here
You can tell I’m worried about tomorrow
Living in this cardboard town with nothing to my name
Hoping there'll be food
this
The bowl was left behind us
For Hooverville's before us

Three hundred thousand
Bodies who can't rest

Sweet Thursday is calling me back up
places to live 'cause folks couldn't pay their bills
They ended up on the streets in Hoovervilles

The Great Depression
Slowed progression
1929 to 1941
On our knees
Crying at the grave of our economy"

Stir it up
Unleash the power of suggestion
"Hooverville
Looks like the fucking Hilton"

We're on our
of tents
pitched under the highway pass
Its Hooverville for the 21stcentury
where the banks robbed us
and the poor got poorer
And we chug along blindly
padlocks
lyrics from a hooverville you're rapping is atrocious
Stopped paying attention cuz i thought that they would notice, that I'm
Eating now I'm full so
to maneuver the vortex of hoovervilles and informants
Furthest edge of web form a quartet, in spite of this
On Portland doorsteps, Kismet leave vitamins
Just
weight, I'm moving it
I'm rich like a supervillain, you living like Hoovervilles
I got motives to fulfill
Neighborhood need stupid hills
Hot, I never choose
to fade away?

Whoops, there goes another thousand city workers
The tightrope walkers of this economic circus

And before you build that Hooverville
Beware
Island,
To Greek school,
On a fine fall day.
And I'd look up at the sky
And down at the river.
But Davenport changed its name to Hooverville,
So
still, but under that canvas tarp your heart is a stunning jewel, and you are a work of art By Hoovervilles with bums and tramps mobile villages and camps
