There's a man talking on the radio |
|
What he's saying i don't really know |
|
Seems he's lost some stocks and shares |
|
Stops and stares |
|
He's afraid i know |
|
That's the way it goes |
|
There's a man talking of the promised land |
|
He'll aquire it with some krugerrand |
|
Subdivide and deal it out |
|
Feel his clout |
|
He can stoop so low |
|
And that's the way it goes |
|
There's an actor who hopes to fit the bill |
|
Sees a shining city on a hill |
|
Step up close and see he's blind |
|
Wined and dined |
|
All he has is pose |
|
And that's the way it goes |
|
There's a fire that burns away the lies |
|
Manifesting in the spiritual eye |
|
Though you won't understand the way i feel |
|
You conceal, all there is to know |
|
That's the way it goes |
