The Pursuit Of Happiness Songtext / Lyric

(G.Brooker / K.Reid / M.Noble)



One into one won't go

Two out of three don't know

Time and tide in man's affairs

Trouble always comes in pairs

Wonder where the picture went?

What we got ain't worth a cent

What we got ain't worth a damn

Someone's screwed the master plan






The pursuit of happiness

It's a common goal

The pursuit of happiness

Doing what we're told

The pursuit of happiness

To the very end

It goes 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round again



Bite the bullet in the dust

Got to take their word on thrust

No use counting down your prayers

All God's children running scared

No use howling at the moon

Planet Earth is going soon

Starving children stand on line

Living now on borrowed time



The pursuit of happiness

It's a common goal

The pursuit of happiness

Doing what we're told

The pursuit of happiness

To the very end

It goes 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round again
