So It Goes

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 passes
 Cause your promoter had the 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
 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 air there's after shave lotion
 In the wake of a snake bitten Persian
 On his arm there's a skin tight vision
 Wonder why she admires she is hissin'
 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
 But where it's goin' no one knows
 But where it's goin' no one knows
 But where it's goin' no one knows
