[00:04.923]Robert owes half to Grenville
[00:07.050]Who, in turn, gave half to Larry, who
[00:09.554]Adored my instrumentals
[00:11.844]And so he gave half to a foreign publisher
[00:14.057]He took half the money
[00:16.093]That was earned in some far distant land
[00:18.518]Gave back half to Larry
[00:20.600]And I end up with half of goodness knows what
[00:23.890]Can somebody explain
[00:26.168]Why things go on this way?
[00:28.405]I thought they were my friends
[00:30.659]I can't believe it's me
[00:32.853]I can't believe that I'm so green
[00:36.662]Eyes down, round and round
[00:38.793]Let's all sit and watch the money-go-round
[00:41.047]Everyone take a little bit here and a little bit there
[00:45.449]Do they all deserve money from a song that they've never heard?
[00:49.975]They don't know the tune and they don't know the words
[00:51.902]But they don't give a damn
[00:54.191]There's no end to it
[00:56.442]I'm in a pit and I'm stuck in it
[00:58.615]The money goes 'round and around and around
[01:00.623]And it comes out here
[01:02.958]When they've all taken their share
[01:10.058]I went to see a solicitor and my story was heard and the writs were served
[01:14.295]On the verge of a nervous breakdown
[01:16.391]I decided to fight right to the end
[01:18.778]But if I ever get my money
[01:20.825]I'll be too old and grey to spend it
[01:23.146]Oh, but life goes on and on
[01:26.335]And no one ever wins
[01:28.565]And time goes quickly by
[01:30.826]Just like the money-go-round
[01:32.999]I only hope that I'll survive
[01:37.877]
