Kinks - The Moneygoround текст песни

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
