Lyrics El cerrito Cracker

El cerrito


Walking down the street in San Francisco just the other day
Wondering what has happened to the freaks and hippies and the punks
Everybody's squeaky clean, they look and dress and act the same
I don't give a shit about your IPO I live in El Cerrito

Mama took the Altimeter Transit bus to work each day
All the way down San Pablo, thirty years a Naval base
Never heard her once complain about taking public transportation
You should ride the city bus just like the rest of us in El Cerrito

Do do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do
El Cerrito

Big moustache in taxi cabs, don't you know the ?
Union bus to ? morales, I said it
Bullshit claims to change the world, making Wall Street bankers even richer (richer, richer, richer)
El Cerrito's got its problems but we don't pick pockets of the working man

Pablo was an engineer, working Hewlett Packard
Dumbarton Bridge two times a day then lost his job and pay cheque
We would go and visit him in bars in Jack Landis Square
I don't give a shit about your IPO I come from El Cerrito
Do do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do
El Cerrito
Do do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do
El Cerrito

If there is a lesson from this story to be learned
It's not exactly what you think, you shouldn't be concerned
It's not that we don't like the rich, it's simply that we think this kind is boring
Everybody thinks and acts the same that's why I live in El Cerrito

Do do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do
El Cerrito
Do do do do do do do do do do
Do do do do do do do do do
El Cerrito

Ooh

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
 
The lyrics EL CERRITO of CRACKER is also present in the album Berkeley to bakersfield (2014)
