Mansion In The Slums Lyrics
Crowded House
Id 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 youre bleeding to death
Id much rather have a trampoline in my front room
Than an isolation tank
I wish I was a million miles away
From the managers door
There is trouble at the bank
You laugh at yourself
As you go deep into debt
Laugh at yourself
While hes breathing down your neck
Who can stop me
With money in my pocket
Sometimes I get it free
The best of both worlds
Id much rather have a caravan in the hills
Id much rather have a mansion ... in the hills
Than a mansion in the slums
Yeah Id much rather ...
What I mean is, would you mind if I had it all
Ill take it when it comes
And you laugh at yourself
While youre bleeding to death
And somebody else is always
Breathing down your neck
Laugh at yourself
While hes hanging over your head
The best of both worlds
Itll soon be over
