The Way Of The World - Kayak

A bolted door and a prison cell

Turned his life into a living hell

It seems like fiction but he knows for a fact

She only did a disappearing act

He s doing time

For a phoney crime

She set her trap and played him for a fool

That s the way of the world

Where you get what you deserve

That s the way of the world

Never thought she d have the nerve

That s the way of the world

That s the way of the world

It s payback time for the years she s lost

He s had his fun, but wonders at what cost

The plan has worked, they re convinced she s dead

By far the best laugh she s ever had

But he s not amused

cause he s wrongly accused

Still he must admit she surely played it cool

That s the way of the world

She s a villian in disguise

That s the way of the world

Pulling the wool over his eyes

That s the way of the world

Yes the way of the world

Who s gonna believe him when the truth really sounds too absurd

She and her lover simply fell off the face of the earth

He s making the headlines

While she s spending her days at the beach

A new face, a new

A passport to paradise

That s the way of the world
