BLOW YOUR MANSION DOWN

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 line

But 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

I 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
