| They broke off the locks and they opened the doors
|
| Pushed up the windows and painted the floors
|
| Grew a little garden outside in the rust and sand
|
| Raised up the roof till it touched the sky
|
| Picked up the pieces that were left to die
|
| Brought this building back with a healing hand
|
| When you see trouble
|
| You’re bound to move in on the double
|
| Cause you leave your mark upon everything
|
| In your head those Liberty Bells still ring
|
| But we know that you don’t even mean
|
| A thing you say
|
| So you brought in the army to do your job
|
| Of kicking in doors and swinging their clubs
|
| Back in the morning to watch
|
| Themselves on the news
|
| You’re doing the bidding of the money man
|
| If it turns out right they’ll call you friend
|
| One little favour how could you really refuse
|
| Oh my heart is sinking
|
| Same old useless worn out thinking
|
| You live your life in the court of kings
|
| Bow to the ruler and kiss the ring
|
| But we don’t even understand a thing you say
|
| It could happen to you
|
| It could happen to you
|
| It could happen to you sometime
|
| When you least expect it Done by the ones that you never suspected
|
| All your bills come due
|
| It could happen to you
|
| You really got to wonder what you did it for
|
| Cause you don’t need an army
|
| To move out the poor
|
| You brought it out once I know
|
| You could bring it again
|
| Oh my heart is sinking
|
| Same old useless worn out thinking
|
| You live your life in the court of kings
|
| Count your money as the Raven sings
|
| Safe and sound when the wrecking ball swings
|
| But all your riches won’t mean a thing someday
|
| Oh it could happen to you
|
| Oh it could happen to you
|
| Oh it could happen to you
|
| Oh it could happen to you |
