Rise and Fall

Once a singer sang 'bout bullshit and everyone could see him fall And be sure it's been his last hit, he's never been seen at all Some dictator felt progressive and lay down in the sun But his people were aggressive, they killed him with a gun Sometimes you're wrong by some things you have done You see fate is too strong, nothing's won No use for a fight if you're not acting right You'll be cut down to size like a lie It's the rise and fall, the prize for all, that ain't nice at all Luck is like a ball you can't recall or care at all, so better use your brain A little dragon could spit fire but never so for something bad He didn't know the knight's desire to throw a lance into his head Romeo loved his Juliet, their parents told them "Stop" Then it all turned out peculiar, he couldn't get it up And it's all in vain when you're living with pain, reap not goods you have grown by your own Feelings you like disappear overnight, you sip up every grin, free to win It's the rise and fall, the prize for all, that ain't nice at all Luck is like a ball, you can't recall or care at all, you nearly go insane A spaceman flies the rocket that takes him to the stars Thinks his wife is in his pocket but she's strolling 'round in bars The king of Los Angeles bought himself a teddy bear And the queen became shameless, she did it with a chair Sometimes you're wrong by some things you have done, you see fate is too strong, nothing's won No use for a fight if you're not acting right you'll be cut down to size like a lie It's the rise and fall, the prize for all, that ain't nice at all Luck is like a ball you can't recall or care at all It's the rise and fall, the prize for all, that ain't nice at all Luck is like a ball you can't recall or care at all, so better use your brain So better use your brain Rise... fall...
