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
