You've come up in the world |
|
And it's all to your credit |
|
You made somethin' of your life like you always said you would |
|
But what ever happened to |
|
The girl I used to know |
|
And all those halcyon days of love? |
|
You've come up in the world |
|
And it's such a shame |
|
You made success of a dream but it seems so empty now |
|
With your weak excuses and |
|
Your condescending ways |
|
And all too frequent nights - alone. |
|
STRINGS I've come down in the world |
|
And it's all to your credit |
|
You made somethin' of my life but you've thrown it all away |
|
For your books and your fancy talk |
|
Your new found friends and all |
|
Your theories on mankind - and society. |
