I hear the Seven Deadly Sins[00:00:33]
And the Terrible Twins came to call on you[00:00:36]
The bigger they are babe[00:00:40]
The harder they fall on you[00:00:45]
And you you're always the same[00:00:48]
You persevere on the same old pleasure ground[00:00:51]
Oh and it never rains around here[00:00:57]
It just comes pouring down[00:01:02]
You had no more volunteers[00:01:13]
So you got profiteers for to help you out[00:01:15]
Well with friends like that babe[00:01:23]
Good friends you had to do without[00:01:25]
And now they've taken the chains[00:01:29]
And the gears from off your merry-go-round[00:01:31]
Oh and it never rains around here[00:01:33]
It just comes pouring down[00:01:43]
And your new Romeo[00:01:47]
Was just a gigolo when he let you down[00:01:49]
See the faster they are babe[00:01:55]
The faster they get out of town[00:01:57]
Leaving make up stains[00:02:01]
And the tears of a clown[00:02:04]
Yes and it never rains around here[00:02:09]
It just comes pouring down[00:02:15]
Oh you were just a roller coaster memory[00:02:19]
I don't know why I was even passing through[00:02:23]
I saw you making a date with Destiny[00:02:27]
When he came around here asking after you[00:02:30]
In the shadow of the Wheel of Fortune[00:02:34]
You're busy trying to clear your name[00:02:37]
You say 'I may be guilty yeah that may be true[00:02:42]
But I'd be lying if I said I was to blame[00:02:46]
See we could have been major contenders[00:02:50]
We never got no money no breaks'[00:02:52]
You've got a list of all the major offenders[00:02:58]
You got a list of all their major mistakes[00:03:02]
And he's just standing in the shadows[00:03:04]
Yes and he smile that come-on smile[00:03:10]
Oh I can still hear you say as clear as the day[00:03:14]
'I'd like to make it worth your while'[00:03:19]
Oh but it's a sad reminder[00:03:22]
When your organ grinder has to come to you for the rent[00:03:23]
And all you've got to give him[00:03:29]
Is the use of your side-show tent[00:03:34]
Yes and that's all that remains of the years[00:03:37]
Spent doing them rounds[00:03:41]
And it never rains around here[00:03:44]
Well it just comes pouring down[00:03:51]
Now you know what they say about beggars[00:03:55]
You can't complain about the rules[00:03:59]
You know what they say about beggars[00:04:03]
You know who's the first to blame his tools[00:04:07]
You never gave a damn about who you pick up[00:04:11]
And leave them laying bleeding on the ground[00:04:15]
You screw people over on your way up[00:04:18]
Because you thought that you were never coming down[00:04:22]
And he takes you out in Vaudeville Valley[00:04:26]
With his hand up smothering your screams[00:04:30]
And he screws you down in Tin Pan Alley[00:04:34]
In the city of a billion dreams[00:04:38]
