This was the hope for the future Far from the heavy machines Lawns as green as the Fifties Cul de sacs for the kids Somebody needled the bubble Somebody pulled out the rug Thank god for tents and for trailers Thank god for parking lots One man’s house is another man’s gold You do for yours, and I’ll take care of my own Knock knock knock, nobody home Possession is all the law I know Tear it up We’re mining copper Tear it up We’re pulling wire Tear it up Until it’s empty All night all night Tear it up We’re mining copper Tear it up We’re pulling pipe Tear it up Until it’s empty All night all night Take me to Yuba City Get on the party bus Row upon row of unwanted Waiting for me to come Hammers clippers and strippers The plaster in the air I only see the potential Where others see despair One man’s house is another man’s gold You do for yours, and I’ll take care of my own Knock knock knock, nobody home Possession is all the law I know Tear it up We’re mining copper Tear it up We’re pulling wire Tear it up Until it’s empty All night all night Tear it up We’re mining copper Tear it up We’re pulling pipe Tear it up Until it’s empty All night all night I dream of empty buildings Banks and the stock exchange They sell the vapors of finance I sell the real thing One man’s house is another man’s gold You do for yours, and I’ll take care of my own Knock knock knock, nobody home Possession is all the law I know Tear it up We’re mining copper Tear it up We’re pulling wire Tear it up Until it’s empty All night all night Tear it up We’re mining copper Tear it up We’re pulling pipe Tear it up Until it’s empty All night all night Tear it up Tear it up Until it’s empty, all night all night
