Depreston

Lyrics

You said we should look out further
 I guess it wouldn't hurt us
 We don't have to be around all these coffee shops
 Now we've got that percolator
 Never made a latte greater
 I'm savin' 23 dollars a week
 We drive to a house in Preston
 We see police arresting
 A man with his hand in a bag
 How's that for first impressions
 This place seems depressing
 It's a California bungalow in a caul-de-sac
 It's got a lovely garden
 And a garage for two cars to park in
 Or a lot of room for storage if you've just got one
 And it's going pretty cheap, you say
 Well, it's a deceased's estate
 Aren't the pressed Metal ceilings great
 Then I see the hand rail in the shower
 A colleciton of those canisters for coffee tea and flower
 And a photo of a young man in a van in Vietnam
 And I can't think of floor boards anymore
 Whether the front room faces south or north
 And I wonder what she bought it for
 ♪
 If you've got a spare half a million
 You could knock it down and start rebuilding
 If you've got a spare half a million
 You could knock it down and start rebuilding
 If you've got a spare half a million
 You could knock it down and start rebuilding
 If you've got a spare half a million
 You could knock it down and start rebuilding
