There goes my money, there goes my lawyer There goes mylover with another cheap who*e I don't mind He lies and he cheats and he cheats and he lies I don't mind I'm back on my knees again, down on my knees again I never know when I've had enough The world's you clam, that's what they sold But the pearl's just a rock in a burnt out shell Now I don't even try to make that scene I just scheme and I schemme and I scheme And they lie and they cheat and they cheat and they lie I don't mind I'm back on my knees again, down on my knees again I never know when I've had enough So I play the game, do the deals, get the critics At my heals; What else can I do? What you live in a zoo? 'Cept lie and cheat and cheat and lie I don't mind I'm back on my knees again, down on my knees again I never know when I've had enough
