The Rich Are Going To Move To The High Ground
Geoff Berner

Wealthy people like to live, live near the water nThey pass their real estate down to their sons and their daughters. nGenerations are happy just enjoying the view, but nWhen the water starts rising you know what they’re gonna do nnThe rich are gonna move to the high ground nThe rich are gonna move to the high ground nHoly doodle, look at your town nThe rich are gonna move to the high ground nnAll those singers and actors and philanthropists nSay the poor are at the top of the priority list. nBut when the levees start breaking and the barriers fall nWhere will they be when we come to pay a courtesy call? nWith their mistresses, wives, pets, children and all nAt the top of a hill behind a fortified wall. nnThe rich are gonna move to the high ground nThe rich are gonna move to the high ground nHoly doodle, look at your town nThe rich are gonna move to the high ground nnEvery sad number that the scientists find nYou get the feeling that some people really don’t mind nTo see a new feudal age for the whole human race n‘Cos the rabble will finally be all back in their place. nThey’ll be no revolution, we’ll be meek as wet mouses nBegging them to let our children serve in their houses. nnThe rich are gonna move to the high ground nThe rich are gonna move to the high ground nHoly doodle, look at your town nThe rich are gonna move to the high ground nTake me higher to that higher ground nYou and me baby, we’re gonna watch the poor drownn
