courtney barnett - depreston 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
now we’ve got that percolator, never made a latte greater
i’m saving twenty-three dollars a week

[verse 2]
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 californian bungalow in a cul-de-sac

[verse 3]
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
and it’s going pretty cheap you say, well, it’s a deceased estate
aren’t the pressed metal ceilings great?

[verse 4]
then 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
and i can’t think of floorboards anymore
whether the front room faces south or north
and i wonder what she bought it for

[refrain]
if you’ve got a spare half a million
you could knock it down and start rebuildin’
if you’ve got a spare half a million
you could knock it down and start rebuildin’
if you’ve got a spare half a million
you could knock it down and start rebuildin’
if you’ve got a spare half a million
you could knock it down and start rebuildin’
if you’ve got a spare half a million
you could knock it down and start rebuildin’
if you’ve got a spare half a million
you could knock it down and start rebuildin’
