My father used to listen to these really cheesy 1960s pop/rock records from Hong Kong. Looking back on it, I guess they had this kind of cool vibe to them. This is my homage to that period/place.

Lyrics
Mansions in the sky and fancy limousines / but I live in a cage packed like a can of sardines / Hong Kong is hell on Earth for poor people like me / 12 hours a day I am working like a slave / for dinner I'll have a bowl of sadness and pain / Hong Kong is hell on Earth for poor people like me
Late at night I go up on the roof / wishing for an answer to my prayers / but all I get is deafening silence / I'm resigned to my hopeless fate
They're tearing down my home so now I have to move / I never get to call a place my home for very long / Hong Kong is hell on Earth for poor people like me
