## Lyrics

[Spoken Intro: *Spoken over backing tack*]

This huge construction project could also change the character of areas on this road forever.

That's the worry at least, to people once known as 'Tin Pan Alley'

*This next song is called Tin Pan Boy, let's fucking lose it*

(Boy, boy, boy, boy)

*Jump, jump, jump, jump!*

[Verse 1: (Brackets are not sung due to shortness of breath)]

(You) found a carousel to ride around

But then you get bored, so you tear it down

Like a kid (in a) playground, putting sand in their mouth

Spit it out, when you're feeling fickle

And I want to say it shouldn't work that way

People's lives ain't a game, just 'cause you can pay

Smoking your big fat cigar

Tweed hat, cravat and four birds on your arm

[Chorus]

I'm just a tin pan boy, do you want to take my toy?

Hey, you, Mr. Developer!

Hey, you, Mr. Developer!

You're just a tin town toy, oh, a big fat boy

Hey, you, Mr. Inheritor!

Crook, hook, Mr. Proprietor (Boy, boy, boy, boy, oi)

[Verse 2: (Brackets are not sung due shortness of breath), *backing track*, **Spoken**]

You kick the small kid off the monkey bars

Take your mess (out of his) specs and the size of his arm

Force him to dress in black, and make him hold your holster

While you shoot him in the back *(Bang)*

You will say I'm only writing songs

Son, get off (of) your ass and get a proper job

And snigger at my beat-up boots

But I tell you, Sir (I'm coming after you in fiction)

**Jump! Jump! Jump!**

[Chorus]

I'm just a tin pan boy, do you want to take my toy?

Hey, you, Mr. Developer!

Hey, you, Mr. Developer!

You're just a tin town toy, oh, a big fat boy

Hey, you, Mr. Inheritor!

Crook, hook, Mr. Proprietor (Boy, boy, oi, boy, boy)

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

I'm just a tin pan boy, do you want to take my toy?

Hey, you, Mr. Developer!

Hey, you, Mr. Developer!

You're just a tin town toy, oh, a big fat boy

Hey, you, Mr. Inheritor!

Crook, hook, Mr. Proprietor (Boy, boy, oi, boy, boy)

(Boy, boy, oh oi, boy, boy)

[Outro: Spoken]

Thank you, see you later!

Do you want one more?

Atlanta, do you want one fucking more?
