《The Moneyground》歌词

[00:00:00] The Moneyground - The Kinks

[00:00:05] Robert owes half to Grenville

[00:00:07] Who in turn gave half to Larry

[00:00:09] Who adored my instrumentals

[00:00:11] And so he gave half to a foreign publisher

[00:00:14] She took half the money that was earned

[00:00:16] In some far distant land

[00:00:18] Gave back half to Larry and I end up

[00:00:21] With half of goodness knows what

[00:00:24] Oh can somebody explain why things go on this way

[00:00:28] I thought they were my friends I can't believe it's me

[00:00:33] I can't believe that I'm so green

[00:00:36] Eyes down round and round let's all sit

[00:00:40] And watch the moneygoround

[00:00:41] Everyone take a little bit here and a little bit there

[00:00:46] Do they all deserve money from a song that they've never heard

[00:00:50] They don't know the tune and they don't know the words

[00:00:53] But they don't give a damn

[00:00:55] There's no end to it I'm in a pit and I'm stuck in it

[00:00:58] The money goes round and around and around

[00:01:00] And it comes out here when they've all taken their share

[00:01:10] I went to see a solicitor and my story

[00:01:12] Was heard and the writs were served

[00:01:14] On the verge of a nervous breakdown

[00:01:16] I decided to fight right to the end

[00:01:19] But if I ever get my money I'll be too old and grey to spend it

[00:01:24] Oh but life goes on and on and no one ever wins

[00:01:28] And time goes quickly by just like the moneygoround

[00:01:33] I only hope that I'll survive
