The song captures the frustration and helplessness of residents fighting against mismanagement while yearning for accountability and transparency.
Verse 1:
The monthly dues are coming in,
But where is that money goin’?
They promised us the world,
But all we see is ruin showin'.
Chorus:
Mismanagement blues, oh can't you see,
Our hard-earned cash, gone mysteriously.
Reserve funds used for things they should not,
We're left in the lurch, that's the real plot.
Verse 2:
Light bulbs flicker, the pool's gone green,
Maintenance requests go unseen.
They say they’re fixing things, but we know,
It's just a cover for their careless show.
Chorus:
Mismanagement blues, oh can't you see,
Our hard-earned cash, gone mysteriously.
Reserve funds used for things they should not,
We're left in the lurch, that's the real plot.
Bridge:
We’re fighting back, we’ll raise our voice,
Together as a community, we’ll make a choice.
Demanding answers, accountability too,
It's time to take a stand, time to break through.
Verse 3:
We gathered signatures, called an emergency meet,
Sharing our stories, refusing to accept defeat.
We won't let them walk away with our funds,
For a brighter future, this battle has just begun.
Chorus:
Mismanagement blues, oh can't you see,
Our hard-earned cash, gone mysteriously.
Reserve funds used for things they should not,
We're left in the lurch, that's the real plot.
Outro:
So here’s to all the tenants, don’t lose your hope,
Together we’ll fight, together we’ll cope.
Mismanagement won’t win, we’re taking a stand,
For the homes we love, united, hand in hand.
