Lyrics The Way Of The World - Kayak

The Way Of The World

A bolted door and a prison cell
Turned his life into a living hell
It seems like fiction but he knows for a fact
She only did a disappearing act
He s doing time
For a phoney crime
She set her trap and played him for a fool
That s the way of the world
Where you get what you deserve
That s the way of the world
Never thought she d have the nerve
That s the way of the world
That s the way of the world
It s payback time for the years she s lost
He s had his fun, but wonders at what cost
The plan has worked, they re convinced she s dead
By far the best laugh she s ever had
But he s not amused
cause he s wrongly accused
Still he must admit she surely played it cool
That s the way of the world
She s a villian in disguise
That s the way of the world
Pulling the wool over his eyes
That s the way of the world
Yes the way of the world
Who s gonna believe him when the truth really sounds too absurd
She and her lover simply fell off the face of the earth
He s making the headlines
While she s spending her days at the beach
A new face, a new
A passport to paradise
That s the way of the world
