If coke is a mystery
and michael jackson...
history
and beauty is truth
and surgery the
fountain of youth
what am I to do
have I got the gifts
to get me through
the gates of that
mansion
if OJ is more than a
drink
and a big mac bigger
than you think
if perfume is an
obsession
and talk shows...
confession
what have we got to
lose
another push and maybe
we«ll be through
the gates of that
mansion
I never bought a lotto
ticket
I never parked in
anyone«s space
the banks they«re like
cathedrals
I guess casinos took
their palce
love «come on down«
don«t wake her she«ll
come around
chance is a kind of
religion
where you«re damned
for plain hard luck
I never did see that
movie
never did read that
book
love come on down
let my numbers come
around
don«t know if I can
hold on
don«t know if I«m that
strong
don«t know if I can
wait that long
till the colours come
flashing
and the lights go on
then will there be no
time of sorrow
then will there be no
time for shame
and though I can«t say
why
I know I«ve got to
believe
we«ll go driving in
that pool
it«s who you know that
gets you through
the gates of the
playboy mansion
then will there be no
time of sorrow
then will there be no
time for pain
then will there be no
time of sorrow
then will there be no
time for shame
