about

President Trump has attacked Baltimore as a "rat infested mess." His slumlord son-in-law Jared Kushner owns apartment complexes that have been cited for hundreds of code violations.

lyrics

In a Baltimore apartment
A slumlord comes to call
It’s time to collect the monthly rent
But when the rats run ‘cross the floor
He’s nowhere to be found
And no one seems to know just where he went

And the sins of Baltimore
Cannot be atoned
They can’t be swept aside
Forgotten or disowned
‘Til the agents of corruption
Are heard from Nevermore
Weep for your children
And the sins of Baltimore

In the rat infested hovels
Where men in suit and tie
Sip champagne that someone else pays for
They plot the fate of nations
While cursing humankind
And laughing at the folks of Baltimore

And the sins of Baltimore
Cannot be atoned
They can’t be swept aside
Forgotten or disowned
‘Til the agents of corruption
Are heard from Nevermore
Weep for your children
And the sins of Baltimore

Some people like gardening, working on cars or woodworking. Others enjoy knitting, collecting stamps or coins. That kind of thing. I like writing songs.
