I hear the Seven Deadly Sins |
| [00:34.09] |
And the Terrible Twins came to call on you |
| [00:40.85] |
The bigger they are babe |
| [00:43.35] |
The harder they fall on you |
| [00:46.81] |
And you you're always the same |
| [00:49.69] |
You persevere on the same old pleasure ground |
| [00:55.03] |
Oh and it never rains around here |
| [01:01.34] |
It just comes pouring down |
| [01:04.18] |
|
| [01:11.88] |
You had no more volunteers |
| [01:13.84] |
So you got profiteers for to help you out |
| [01:20.95] |
Well, with friends like that babe |
| [01:23.08] |
Good friends you had to do without |
| [01:27.10] |
And now they've taken the chains |
| [01:30.08] |
And the gears from off your merry-go-round |
| [01:35.19] |
Oh and it never rains around here |
| [01:41.51] |
It just comes pouring down |
| [01:43.91] |
|
| [01:45.32] |
And your new Romeo |
| [01:47.39] |
Was just a gigolo when he let you down |
| [01:53.17] |
See the faster they are babe |
| [01:55.77] |
The faster they get out of town |
| [01:59.57] |
Leaving make up stains |
| [02:02.23] |
And the tears of a clown |
| [02:07.58] |
Yes and it never rains around here |
| [02:14.12] |
It just comes pouring down |
| [02:16.73] |
|
| [02:17.07] |
Oh you were just a roller coaster memory |
| [02:21.19] |
I don't know why I was even passing through |
| [02:25.22] |
I saw you making a date with Destiny |
| [02:28.71] |
When he came around here asking after you |
| [02:32.85] |
In the shadow of the Wheel of Fortune |
| [02:37.21] |
You're busy trying to clear your name |
| [02:41.23] |
You say 'I may be guilty yeah that may be true |
| [02:44.95] |
But I'd be lying if I said I was to blame |
| [02:49.08] |
See we could have been major contenders |
| [02:53.33] |
We never got no money no breaks' |
| [02:56.93] |
You've got a list of all the major offenders |
| [03:00.97] |
You got a list of all their major mistakes |
| [03:05.10] |
And he's just standing in the shadows |
| [03:09.02] |
Yes and he smile that come-on smile |
| [03:13.00] |
Oh I can still hear you say as clear as the day |
| [03:17.60] |
'I'd like to make it worth your while' |
| [03:20.54] |
Oh but it's a sad reminder |
| [03:23.19] |
When your organ grinder has to come to you for the rent |
| [03:30.02] |
And all you've got to give him |
| [03:32.45] |
Is the use of your side-show tent |
| [03:35.80] |
Yes and that's all that remains of the years |
| [03:40.19] |
Spent doing them rounds |
| [03:44.31] |
And it never rains around here |
| [03:50.09] |
Well it just comes pouring down |
| [03:53.03] |
|
| [03:53.68] |
Now you know what they say about beggars |
| [03:58.04] |
You can't complain about the rules |
| [04:01.85] |
You know what they say about beggars |
| [04:05.67] |
You know who's the first to blame his tools |
| [04:09.91] |
You never gave a damn about who you pick up |
| [04:13.83] |
And leave them laying bleeding on the ground |
| [04:17.96] |
You screw people over on your way up |
| [04:21.89] |
Because you thought that you were never coming down |
| [04:25.48] |
And he takes you out in Vaudeville Valley |
| [04:29.52] |
With his hand up smothering your screams |
| [04:33.55] |
And he screws you down in Tin Pan Alley |
| [04:37.57] |
In the city of a billion dreams |
| [04:41.38] |
|
