The Moneygoround |
| Robert owes half to grenville |
| Who in turn gave half to larry |
| Who adored my instrumentals |
| And so he gave half to a foreign publisher |
| She took half the money that was earned in some far distant land |
| Gave back half to larry and I end up with half of goodness knows what |
| Oh can somebody explain why things go on this way |
| I thought they were my friends I cant believe its me, I cant believe that Im so green |
| Eyes down round and round lets all sit and watch the moneygoround |
| Everyone take a little bit here and a little bit there |
| Do they all deserve money from a song that theyve never heard |
| They dont know the tune and they dont know the words |
| But they dont give a damn |
| Theres no end to it Im in a pit and Im stuck in it The money goes round and around and around |
| And it comes out here when theyve all taken their share |
| I went to see a solicitor and my story was heard and the writs were served |
| On the verge of a nervous breakdown I decided to fight right to the end |
| But if I ever get my money Ill be too old and grey to spend it Oh, but life goes on and on and no one ever wins |
| And time goes quickly by just like the moneygoround |
| I only hope that Ill survive |
