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
