They're Building Flats Where The Arches Used To Be  

They're building flats where the arches used to be,
There's somebody eating,
Where we used to be sleeping.
They're paying rents where we once lived rent free,
And there's no one to say,
"Here's the dawn of another day".
Side by side, we looked with pride,
At our old abode,
Now we wonder if we'll have to take that open road.
We're walking 'round now
As sad as can be.
They're building flats where the arches used to be.
