Lyrics
They massacred the neighborhood
I knew they would, this time of year
It was lilac and wisteria
The peonies, such a fragrance in this room
The light on the elm, the daffodils in bloom
They should have had a law against it
They should have had the law
And now we're all boxed in
Bricks and windows, we're all boxed in
Bricks and windows, we're all boxed in
Bricks and windows
The streets are lined with cars
And you can't raise a carrot in the yard
We're all boxed in now
Bricks and windows
She was no diamond, but she was rough
No diamond, but she was rough
She was no diamond, but she was rough to touch
I'm all tapped out, giving it up
Gave all I had and it isn't enough
I gave all I had
I'm all tapped out, giving it up
Gave all I had and it isn't enough
I gave all I had
I'm all tapped out, giving it up
Gave all I had and it isn't enough
I gave all I had
