ping pong

Its alright cos the historical pattern has shown
How the economical cycle tends to revolve
In a round of decades three stages stand out in a loop
A slump and war then peel back to square one and back for more
Bigger slump and bigger wars and a smaller recovery
Huger slump and greater wars and a shallower recovery
You see the recovery always comes round again
Theres nothing to worry for things will look after themselves
Its alright recovery always comes round again
Theres nothing to worry if things can only get better
Theres only millions that lose their jobs and homes and sometimes accents
Theres only millions that die in their bloody wars, its alright
Its only their lives and the lives of their next of kin that they are losing
Its only their lives and the lives of their next of kin that they are losing
Its alright cos the historical pattern has shown
How the economical cycle tends to revolve
In a round of decades three stages stand out in a loop
A slump and war then peel back to square one and back for more
Bigger slump and bigger wars and a smaller recovery
Huger slump and greater wars and a shallower recovery
Dont worry be happy things will get better naturally
Dont worry shut up sit down go with it and be happy
Dum, dum, dum, de dum dum, de duh de duh de dum dum dum... ah ah
Dum, dum, dum, de dum dum, de duh de duh de dum dum dum... ah ah
