Once a singer sang ´bout bullshit
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
so better use your brain
