Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
Now we got that percolator
Never made a latte greater
I'm savin' twenty-three dollars a week
[Verse 3]
We drive to a house in Preston
We see police arresting
A man with his hand in a bag
[Verse 4]
How's that for first impressions?
This place seems depressing
It's the Californian bungalow in a cul-de-sac
[Verse 5]
It's got a lovely garden
A garage for two cars to park in
Or a lot of room for storage
If you've just got one
[Verse 6]
And it's goin' pretty cheap, you say
Well, it's a deceased estate
Aren't the pressed metal ceilings great?
[Verse 7]
And I see the handrail in the shower
A collection of those canisters for coffee, tea, and flour
And a photo of a young man in a van in Vietnam
[Verse 8]
And I can't think of floorboards anymore
Whether the front room faces south or north
And I wonder what she bought it for
[Chorus]
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
