The Pursuit Of Happiness Lyrics - Procol Harum

(G.Brooker / K.Reid / M.Noble) 

One into one won't go 

Two out of three don't know 

Time and tide in man's affairs 

Trouble always comes in pairs 

Wonder where the picture went? 

What we got ain't worth a cent 

What we got ain't worth a damn 

Someone's screwed the master plan

The pursuit of happiness 

It's a common goal 

The pursuit of happiness 

Doing what we're told 

The pursuit of happiness 

To the very end 

It goes 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round again 

Bite the bullet in the dust 

Got to take their word on thrust 

No use counting down your prayers 

All God's children running scared 

No use howling at the moon 

Planet Earth is going soon 

Starving children stand on line 

Living now on borrowed time

The pursuit of happiness 

Doing what we're told 

The pursuit of happiness 

To the very end 

It goes 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round again
