in the last analysis nobody can win
the game is rigged from start to end
all of our chances end up in the bin
the way we do the job is simply spin
we mark each fad and note each trend
in the last analysis nobody can win
the lottery's over and it didn't begin
the world ignores the messages we send
all of our chances end up in the bin
against the rails we always bang a shin
we get back less than half of what we lend
in the last analysis nobody can win
the beggar with his half-full coin tin
on our irregular charity cannot depend
all of our chances end up in the bin
we've censured love and labelled it a sin
we do most good just when we don't intend
in the last analysis nobody can win
all of our chances end up in the bin
