| I have to tell a story - about a man | |
| Never in the mood - to change his life | |
| Nobody wants to help him - as he spirals down | |
| But one day the wrong decision - hit him overnight | |
| No more cocktail parties - champagne's run dry | |
| No company take-overs - stock markets high | |
| No more hand-jobs in the boardroom - sex is history | |
| And no saunas, no jacuzzis - the penalties you'll reap | |
| At last he realized - he did it wrong | |
| Messed big time everywhere - double-dealing lies | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - his just deserts | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - what he deserved | |
| His old man told him always - listen son | |
| It's a two-way street to fortune - you gotta hit and run | |
| Don't forget the mirror - look who's behind | |
| And don't you come up crying - when it's faster coming down | |
| At last he realized - he did it wrong | |
| Messed big time everywhere - double-dealing lies | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - his just deserts | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - what he deserved | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - it's his time | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - can't rewind | |
| Do you get the story - you know this man | |
| Have you learned a lesson - do you understand | |
| When all you got is crystal - you shouldn't cast a stone | |
| So be careful when you go up - 'cause you'll meet them coming down | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - his just deserts | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - what he deserved | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - it's his time | |
| He's going down on his bad luck - can't rewind |
