[00:00.000] 作词 : Davies [00:01.000] 作曲 : Ray Davies [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]
