heaven is a place on earth

let’s build a place!
�
let’s build a place,
�like all the other places.
�
with tall buildings,
�like all the other places with tall buildings,
�
and crowded streets,
�like all the other places with tall buildings,
�and crowded streets.
�
let’s build a place,
�with high rent,
�
like all the other places with tall buildings,
�and crowded streets,
�and high rent.
�
let’s put the poor on the street!
�
like in all the other places with the tall buildings,
�and the crowded streets,
�and the high rent,
�
they put the poor on the street.
�
let’s put the poor on the street!
�
that’s how you stop people from being poor in the first place.
�
they’ll get a job.
�
oh!
�
let’s build a place with jobs!
�
they can go in the tall buildings,
�
like they have in all the other places with the jobs in the tall buildings,
�and the crowded streets,
�and the high rent,
�and someone begging on the sidewalk while you go to work,
�
and cops.
�
let’s build a place with fine dining, gold crusted hors d’oeuvres,
�and wine from some other place that is kind of like this place.
�
kind of like the ones they have in all the other places that are like this place,
�with the jobs and the restaurants in tall buildings,
�and the crowded streets,
�and the high rent,
�and someone starving on the sidewalk while you go to dinner,
�
and cops.
�lots of cops.
�
let’s build a place with luxury condos,
�that the rich can come visit,
�occasionally,
�or sell,
�for a profit.
�
those can go in the tall buildings too!
�
like how they are in all the other places that are like this place,
�with the jobs and restaurants and luxury condos in tall buildings,
�and the crowded streets,
�and the high rent,
�and someone passed out on the sidewalk while you go to bed,
�
and cops.
�lots and lots of cops.
�
let’s build a place,
�with politicians,
�and leaders.
�
like they have in all the other places that are like this place,
�with the jobs and restaurants and luxury condos in tall buildings,
�and the crowded streets,
�and the high rent,
�and someone passed out on the sidewalk while you go to work,
�
and cops.
�lots and lots and lots of cops.
�
those places have politicians and leaders.
�it’s nice because they can reassure people:
�
the buildings are natural,
�the traffic is minimal,
�the rent is reasonable,
�that person wasn’t dead on the sidewalk,
�
the food is filling,
�the views are to die for,
�
and
�
we
�need
�more
�cops.
