You got your days and you got your moments
Lady luck was on your side
Standing tall the king of the castle
Smiling two feet wide
You criticize everything around you
Sipping wine with the well to do
But if the tide were to turn against you
Tell me what, tell me what, tell me what would you do?
You're better off not to ask these questions
You're better off not to think at all
You might as well just count your blessings
Fortunes rise and fall
I met a man and he made a million
Thought the world turned in his hand
PhD in exploitation
Ruler of the working man
He put his money in a happy notion
Donna signed Shannon from his eyes
Good luck comes and goes like fashion
Bet it takes you, bet it takes you, bet it takes you by surprise
What do you say?
You're better off not to ask these questions
You're better off not to think at all
You might as well just count your blessings
Fortunes rise and fall
Bottle blonde with airs and graces
She's gonna be a TV star
She's got friends in all the right places
Drivin' around in daddy's car
She wouldn't hesitate to tell you
That money makes the world go round
And the good time friends who hang around you
Still be there, still be there, still be there on the way down
You're better off not to ask these questions
You're better off not to think at all
You might as well just count your blessings
Fortunes rise and fall
You're better off not to ask these questions
You're better off not to think at all
You might as well just count your blessings
Fortunes rise and fall
They rise and fall
