Who Benefits? - Mustard Plug

Woke up this morning

Another building torn down

Not by a plane

By a parking lot

Think of every person that has walked into the door

Think of every tear that was shed upon the floor

Every baby’s cry answered, every lover’s sigh met

And I know, yes I know, there was life inside it yet

I ask you…

Who benefits?

When the contract has been signed?

Who benefits?

Generations down the line

Who benefits?

Who’s the victim of the crime

Yeah the money’s in your pocket and it happens every time

Never knew brick and mortar so easy to displace

Never knew steel and timber was so easy to erase

Just some greed, some greed, a touch of ego too

To crucify the memory of all we once knew

I ask you…
