Текст песни The Kinks - The Moneygoround

Текст:

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 He 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 Can somebody explain Why things go on this way I thought they were my friends I can't believe it's me I can't believe that I'm so green Eyes down round and round Let's all sit and watch the money go round Everyone take a little bit here And a little bit there Do they all deserve money from a song That they've never heard They don't know the tune And they don't know the words but they don't give a damn There's no end to it I'm in a pit and I'm stuck in it The money goes round and around and around And it comes out here When they've 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 I'll be too old and gray to spend it Oh, but life goes on and on and no one ever wins And time goes quickly by just like the money go round I only hope that I'll survive
