The Playboy Mansion Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If Coke is a mystery
Michael Jackson, history
If 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?

[Verse 2]
If O.J. is more than a drink
And a Big Mac bigger than you think
And perfume is an obsession
And talk shows confession
What have we got to lose?
Another push and we'll be through
The gates of that mansion

[Verse 3]
I never bought a lotto ticket
I never parked in anyone's space
The banks they're like cathedrals
I guess casinos took their place
Love, come on down
Don't wake her, she'll come around

[Verse 4]
Chance is a kind of religion
Where you're damned for plain hard luck
I never did see that movie
I never did read that book
Love, come on down
Let my numbers come around

[Bridge]
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

[Verse 5]
Then will there be no time for 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
But they don't mention the pain

[Outro]
Then will there be no time for sorrow
Then will there be no time for shame
Then will there be no time for sorrow
Then will there be no time for shame

Bono, U2 By U2, 2006:

So many of the songs on Pop are almost but not quite there. “The Playboy Mansion” was originally called “Hymn To The Universe.” It was supposed to be a Pop Art anthem but its contemporary references work against it. Jokes about Michael Jackson and O.J. Simpson just aren’t funn...
