Al Stewart - Blow Your Mansion Down lyrics

Al Stewart - 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 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
