Mansion In The Slums Lyrics

    I'd much rather have a caravan in the hills
    Than a mansion in the slums
    The taste of success only lasts you
    Half an hour or less
    But it loves you when it comes
    And you laugh at yourself
    While you're bleeding to death

    I'd much rather have a trampoline in my front room
    Than an isolation tank
    I wish i was a million miles away
    From the manager's door
    There is trouble at the bank
    You laugh at yourself
    As you go deep into debt
    Laugh at yourself
    While he's breathing down your neck

    Who can stop me
    With money in my pocket
    Sometimes i get it free
    The best of both worlds
    I'd much rather have a caravan in the hills
    I'd much rather have a mansion ... in the hills
    Than a mansion in the slums
    Yeah i'd much rather ...
    What i mean is, would you mind if i had it all
    I'll take it when it comes
    And you laugh at yourself
    While you're bleeding to death
    And somebody else is always
    Breathing down your neck
    Laugh at yourself
    While he's hanging over your head
    The best of both worlds
    It'll soon be over
