Píseň: The Pound Is Sinking

Interpret:
Paul McCartney
Album:
Tug Of War
The Pound Is Sinking
The Peso's Failing
The Lira's Reeling
And Feeling Quite Appalling


The Mark Is Holding
The Franc Is Fading
The Drachma's Very Weak
But Everyone's Still Trading


The Market's Bottom
Has Fallen Right Out
And Only The Strong Are Survivors


Well I Fear, My Dear
That It's Eminently Clear
That You Can't See The Trees
For The Forest
Your Father Was An
Extraordinary Man
But You Don't Seem To Have Inherited
Many Of His Mannerisms


Oh, Any Of His Mannerisms


The Dollar's Moving
The Rouble's Rising
The Yen Is Keeping Up
Which Hardly Seems Surprising


The Market's Bottom
Has Fallen Right Out
And Only The Strong Are Survivors


Hear Me Lover
I Can't Be Held Responsible Now


For Something That Didn't Happen
I Knew You For A Minute
Oh, It Didn't Happen
Only For A Minute
Your Heart Just Wasn't In It Anymore


The Pound Is Sinking
The Peso's Failing
The Lira's Reeling
And Feeling Quite Appalling
