Text: Chris Rea. That's The Way It Goes.

It don't look good,
It don't look great
You know what's going down you really gonna hate
This is the moment, you know the score
This is what your enemies have waited for

You're going down
And everybody knows, that's the way it goes

Take a look, there ain't no doubt about it
You're in real bad shape
Everything that you don't need

Is waiting at your garden gate
So take a smile, take a woe
You got the rest of your life to wonder why and how
Save that for later, you're far too busy now

Because
You're going down
And everybody knows
That's the way it goes
