So It Goes

So It Goes

(album: Jesus Of Cool - 1978)

I remember one night the kid cut off his right arm
In a bid to save a bit of power
He got fifty thousand watts
In a big acoustic tower

Security's so tight tonight
Oh, they're ready for a tussle
Gotta keep your backstage passes
That your promoter had to muscle

And so it goes and so it goes
And so it goes and so it goes
But where it's going, no one knows
And so it goes and so it goes
And so it goes and so it goes
But where it's going, no one knows

In the tall building
Sit the head of our nations
Worthy men from Spain and Siam
All day discussions with the Russians
But they still went ahead and vetoed the plan

Now up jumped the U.S. representative
He's the one with the tired eyes
747 put him in that condition
Flying back from a peace keeping mission

And so it goes and so it goes
And so it goes and so it goes
But where it's going, no one knows
And so it goes and so it goes
And so it goes and so it goes
But where it's going, no one knows

In the air there's after shave lotion
In the wake of a snake-hipped Persian
On his arm there's a skin tight vision
Wonder why she ain't mine she's his'n

And so it goes and so it goes
And so it goes and so it goes
But where it's going, no one knows
And so it goes and so it goes
And so it goes and so it goes
But where it's going, no one knows

But where it's going no one knows
But where it's going no one knows
But where it's going no one knows
