Nick Lowe - So It Goes lyrics

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 pa**es 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 goin' no one knows And so it goes and so it goes And so it goes and so it goes But where it's goin' 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 Flyin' back from a peace keepin' mission 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 But where it's goin' no one knows
