So It Goes
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Friends the Iceman is with us.
Step right up. Step right up.
Come on.
Circus passed through town today
Another clown will come to play
Such is my experience
Adam ate the nasty fruit
Whole wide world's a living proof
So, don't turn your back for too long now
Someone's lying on your roof
'O, no, no, no, no, no
Somebody's chasin' the big stroke
'O no, no, no, no, no
What they call trust is a joke
The mighty castle broke
So it goes, [so it goes], and so I go
Thought I'd know the way the river flows
So it goes, [so it goes], the carousel go 'round
God it shows, true hearts are rarely found
Everything changes but the change
You make your bed, you re-arrange
All the dirty laundry here
Lies don't talk, I heard them yell
Stab the truth, no one will tell
No one was ever so much deceived
By another man you see
'O, no, no, no, no, no
Another chasin' the big stroke
'O I cried now
No, no, no, no, no, no
What they call trust is a joke
Has modern culture spoke?
Yea -So it goes, [so it goes], and so I go
Thought I'd know the way the river flows
So it goes, [so it goes], the carousel go 'round
God it shows, true hearts are rarely found
'O it's just an ocean away, [just an ocean away]
Across the ocean today, [just an ocean away]
'O It's just an ocean away, [just an ocean away]
Get down on my knees, yea
So it goes and so I go, yea
(Y la verdad donde tu te vas?
Y la verdad donde tu te vas?
Y la verdad donde tu te vas?
Y la verdad donde tu te vas?
Y la verdad donde tu te vas?
Y la verdad donde tu te vas?
Y la verdad donde tu te vas?
Y la verdad donde tu te vas?
Y la verdad donde tu te vas?)
"God rest ye merry gentlemen let nothing you dismay"
(Y la verdad donde tu te vas?
Y la verdad donde tu te vas
