| Lyrics | ||
| The rich get richer But the poor get babies So I guess Groucho had it right The times they may change But people rarely do Even while there's hope that they might (Chorus) There's cause and effect When you pause to reflect don't take too long Too much is too wrong I hope for the best Prepare for the worst And I'll never be surprised I wouldn't join a club that wanted me to join `cause the membership is ill-advised Which will you believe Me or your own eyes Ask me no questions And I'll tell you no lies It's not a night at the opera Or a day at the races But life is funny just the same Like animal crackers Tumble into duck soup It's a circus with another name |
