Kieran Goss - Fortunes Rise And Fall lyrics

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
