Mansion In The Slums

I'd much rather have

A caravan in the hills

Than a mansion in the slums

I'd much rather have

A caravan in the hills

Than a mansion in the slums

When 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

And you laugh at yourself

As you go deep into debt

And you 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

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

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

With somebody else always

Breathing down your neck

Laugh at yourself

While he's hanging over your head

While he's breathing down your neck

It'll soon be over (best of both worlds)

With a mansion, mansion!

Best of both worlds

Best of both worlds (will soon be over)
