Lyrics

They’re finally building that purple line train
Flagrant abuse of eminent domain
another case of suburban blight
seems no one cares about the rich man’s plight

Purple line train finally going up
They’re laying track at the country club
Although it hurts that it's been decided
hurts worse knowing that no one’s gonna ride it

Purple line train no one’s asking for
They just bulldozed the house next door
Purple line train keeps me up at night
Like new underwear it’s gonna change my life!!!
