Vicious Companions Paroles

with misguided ill intent
look around it's your only defence
On and on the story goes
where it leads to we all know
what you give is what you get
what you give.
See the hungry cry for the children
watch the greedy call for more
and the self ordained proceed to shut the door
When the needy run from the table
for they know there's nothing there
hoping one day will somebody care
Chorus:
On and on the story goes
where it leads to we all know
what you give is what you get
what you give is what you get
We've gotta be good gotta be strong
the final approach is taking too long
too late in the day when everything's gone and the hearts they have betrayed
end to end they are carefully laid
Chorus:
On and on the story goes
where it leads to we all know
what you give is what you get
what you give is what you get (repeat)
