I've watched you rise up and I've watched you fall down
|
'Til you've lost everything but what money can own.
|
And you feel alright now, but for how long?
|
You feel alright now, how long?
|
|
Do me a favour, stay away from my door.
|
I could use some good company but I don't care for yours.
|
No more pageants, no more.
|
No more pageants, no more.
|
|
I find your words empty and you know as a rule
|
To you I have purposefully never been cruel.
|
But you waste my time, such fools.
|
You waste my time, such fools.
|
|
My love is not here, my love is away.
|
You've caught me alone but you've nothing to say.
|
And it's time to leave now and you know the way.
|
And it's time to leave and you know the way.
|
|
Go and live in the country and I'll stay in town.
|
I have everything but what money can own.
|
And I'll be just fine now, so long.
|
I'll be just fine now, so long.
|
So long.
