In the style of “We Built This City” by Starship
We built this Target
We built this Target by Home Depot
Built this Target
We built this Target by Home Depot
Say you are building a regular shopping place
Say you don’t care if it is zoned for that kind of space
Knee deep in the CEQA, council’s in the fight
Too many stories, raising up the height
Garcetti, La Mirada, a fourteen-year battle, don’t you remember?
We built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
We built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
Built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
Someone’s always paying, his name is Doug Haines
You know he’s the only one in this association name
He just wants to stop this, in a half-unbuilt phase,
He calls it irresponsible, would rather see it razed
Garcetti, La Mirada, we blame you both, you know, don’t you remember?
We built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
We built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
Built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
Just wanna walk on Sunset, don’t wanna cross the street
Puh-lease give us sidewalk, O’Farrell, a place to put our feet!
Who would think the subway is not really that far?
Who cares, we’ve got a place to park—500 cars!
We always believed, Husk, that someday you’d come through
Looking for a miracle, breaking all the rules
I’m looking out over Hollywood
On another gorgeous sunny Saturday
And I’m seeing bumper to bumper traffic
Don’t you remember?
Looks like a lot of shoppers on Western
Heading into that parking garage
Garcetti, La Mirada, hate to say we told you so, don’t you remember?
We built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
We built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
Built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
Built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
Built this Target, we built this Target by Home Depot
