    FORTUNES RISE AND FALL

    You got your days and you got your moments
    Lady luck was on your side
    Standing tall, king of the castle
    Smiling two feet wide
    You criticise everything around you
    Sipping wine with the well to do
    If the tide would turn against you
    Tell me what would you do

    You're better off not to ask these questions
    You're better off not to think at all
    You might as well just count your blessings
    Fortunes rise and fall

    I met a man who made a million
    Thought the world turned in his hand
    A PhD in exploitation
    Ruler of the working man
    He put his money in a half baked notion
    Dollar signs shining from his eyes
    Good luck comes and goes like fashion
    Bet it takes you by surprise

    A bottle blonde with airs and graces
    She's gonna be a T.V. star
    She's got friends in all the right places
    Driving round in daddy's car
    She wouldn't hesitate to tell you
    Money makes the world go round
    Will the goodtime friends that hang around you
    Still be there on the way down
