that's the way it goes
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 acquire 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
