So the world goes, so the world goes
So the world goes, so the world
So the world goes, so the world goes
So the world goes, so the world

Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday
Here is war, here is peace, here's a hungry child
The missiles almost hit, the doves disagree
That is how, that is how

Here’s a woman who doesn't sit, because she's always working
And the father who doesn’t come home 'cause his pocket's empty
So many hands that build, and the others that destroy
That is how, That is how

So the world goes, so the world goes
So the world goes, so the world
So the world goes, so the world goes
So the world goes, so the world

Sixteen hours loud, eight hours silent
Many swift people, yet the next day's already here
We take advantage of now, because the future's not expected
That is how, that is how

Monday, Wednesday, Saturday, Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday
Here is war, here is peace, here's a hungry child
The missiles almost hit, the doves disagree
That is how, that is how
So the world goes, so the world goes
So the world goes, so the world
So the world goes, so the world goes
So the world goes, so the world

So it goes for me, so it goes for you
So it goes for her, so it goes for him, so the world
So it goes for me, so it goes for you
So it goes for her, so it goes for him, so the world

So the world goes, so the world goes
So the world goes, so the world
So the world goes, so the world goes
So the world goes, so the world goes
