Don Henley - Who Owns This Place? Lyrics
You know there ain't no end to man's desireTo steal your water, steal your fireSnakes in the garden, apples on the treeAll of this looks easy, none of this is freeYou might get lucky, got the world to winNeed a little failure to thicken your skinEverybody's talkin', they promise you the moonIt's made of paper and you find out pretty soonWho owns this place?Who owns this place?I'm talkin' to you, now look in my faceAnd tell me who owns this place?But time pa*ses, things changeYou might get restless, I might get strangeBut everything you do says alwaysWho owns this place?Monkey see, monkey doYou're watchin' him and he's watchin' youYou think he's funny, he think you're funny tooYou'd get in there with him if you only knewWho 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 changeShut down the city, fence off the rangeMake everything into a fancy placeWho owns this place?Push, pull, push, pull, push, pullPush, pull, push, pull, push, pullYou always take, you never giveSo busy runnin' you've forgotten where you liveA million miles, a million mallsPretty soon you'll be bouncin' off the wallsScreamin', "Who owns this place?Who owns this place?"Too much ambition, too little graceWho owns this place?"
