The Community Of Hope - PJ Harvey

Here’s the Hope Six Demolition Project

Stretching down to Benning Road

A well-known «pathway of death»

At least that’s what I’m told

And here’s the one sit-down restaurant

In Ward Seven, nice

OK, now this is just drug town, just zombies

But that’s just life

In the Community of Hope

The Community of Hope

The Community of Hope

The Community of Hope, hope, hope, hope

Here’s the highway to death and destruction

South Capitol is its name

And the school just looks like shit-hole

Does that look like a nice place?

Here’s the old mental institution

Now the Homeland Security Base

And here’s God’s Deliverance Centre

A deli called M.L.K

And The Community of Hope

The Community of Hope

The Community of Hope

The Community of Hope, hope, hope, hope

They’re gonna put a Walmart here

They’re gonna put a Walmart here

They’re gonna put a Walmart here

They’re gonna put a Walmart here

They’re gonna put a Walmart here

They’re gonna put a Walmart here

They’re gonna put a Walmart here

They’re gonna put a Walmart here
