You know there ain't no end to man's desire
|
To steal your water, steal your fire
|
Snakes in the garden, apples on the tree
|
All of this looks easy, none of this is free
|
|
You might get lucky, got the world to win
|
Need a little failure to thicken your skin
|
Everybody's talkin', they promise you the moon
|
It's made of paper and you find out pretty soon
|
|
Who owns this place?
|
Who owns this place?
|
I'm talkin' to you, now look in my face
|
And tell me who owns this place?
|
|
But time pa*ses, things change
|
You might get restless, I might get strange
|
But everything you do says always
|
Who owns this place?
|
Monkey see, monkey do
|
You're watchin' him and he's watchin' you
|
You think he's funny, he think you're funny too
|
You'd get in there with him if you only knew
|
|
Who owns this place?
|
Who owns this place?
|
What makes you think that you're a special case?
|
Who owns this place?
|
|
Time pa*ses, things change
|
Shut down the city, fence off the range
|
Make everything into a fancy place
|
Who owns this place?
|
|
Push, pull, push, pull, push, pull
|
Push, pull, push, pull, push, pull
|
|
You always take, you never give
|
So busy runnin' you've forgotten where you live
|
A million miles, a million malls
|
Pretty soon you'll be bouncin' off the walls
|
|
Screamin', "Who owns this place?
|
Who owns this place?"
|
Too much ambition, too little grace
|
Who owns this place?"
|
|

Who Owns This Place?
