OLD YALETOWN

Homer Street’s the coming address
for post mod high rise happiness
Home for those who can’t afford
Concord Place on the Boulevard.

Homer Street’s the Boystown stroll
A little hustle supplements the dole
Boys like more than just survive
they need their drugs to really thrive

But comes the day the cranes come down
and gentry move into Old Yaletown
Residents will speak with a united voice
the street’s for them and not for boys
