Than a mansion in the slums   The taste of success only lasts you      But it loves you when it comes   And you laugh at yourself      I'd much rather have a trampoline in my front room   Than an isolation tank      From the manager's door   There is trouble at the bank      As you go deep into debt   Laugh at yourself      Who can stop me   With money in my pocket      The best of both worlds   I'd much rather have a caravan in the hills      Than a mansion in the slums   Yeah I'd much rather ...      I'll take it when it comes   And you laugh at yourself      And somebody else is always   Breathing down your neck      While he's hanging over your head   The best of both worlds
