The Pound Is Sinking (1993 Digital Remaster) - Paul McCartney (保罗·麦卡特尼)
The pound is sinking
The peso's failing
The lira's reeling and
Feeling quite appalling
The mark is holding
The franc is fading
The drachma's very weak
But everyone's still trading
The market's bottom
Has fallen right out
And only the strong are survivors
Well I fear my dear
That it's eminently clear
That you can't see
The trees for the forest
Your father was an
Extraordinary man
But you don't seem
To have inherited
Many of his mannerisms
Oh any of his mannerisms
The dollar's moving
The ruble's rising
The yen is keeping up
Which hardly seems surprising
The market's bottom has fallen right out
And only the strong are survivors
Hear me lover
I can't be held responsible now
For something that didn't happen
I knew you for a minute
Oh it didn't happen
Only for a minute
Your heart just wasn't in it anymore
The pound is sinking
The peso's failing
The lira's reeling and
Feeling quite appalling
