Blow Your Mansion Down lyrics

There's a sign in the distance
In the hollywood hills
And it's calling the faithful to come
And you know that they will
See the pied piper standing up in the limousine shine
Saying here is your ticket just go to the end of the lineBut if you get off this train
You never gonna get back on again
And if you get out of this car
I don't believe you're ever gonna get too far
And if you should leave me now
Sudden wind will blow your mansion down
Just blow it downI said hey wait a minute
Do you mind if we talk
Though your company's surely a thrill I believe I might walk
Cause there's a crash on the freeway behind and lots of traffic ahead
Could we meet later on I don't think so was all that you said
And if you get off this train
You never gonna get back on again
And if you get out of this car
I don't believe you're ever gonna get too far
And if you should leave me now
Sudden wind will blow your mansion down
Just blow it down
Left him a kind old hand and I was waving goodbye
And the melted away in a smile fading into the sky
But it seemed that I heard them as the night came tumblin' in
They were having a party and somebody started to sing
If you get off this train
You never gonna get on board again
And if you get out of this car
I don't believe you're ever gonna get too far
And if you should leave me now
Sudden wind will blow your mansion down
Just blow it down
