Selling homes on empty streets
Banners wave as prices meet
Clients call in worried tones
Fairytales in bricks and stones
[Verse 2]
Cheap fee agents flood the game
Promises that sound the same
Battles over value scared
Neighborhoods aren't quite prepared
[Chorus]

Everything's not what it seems
Overvaluing galore
Chasing money through the door

Rightmove costs are sky-high rents
Systems fail at any sense
Proptech promises all day
Yet it only leads astray

Freedom but it's never void
