Paul McCartney – The pound is sinking (demo) lyrics

The pound is sinking, the peso's failing,
the lira's reeling and feeling quite appalling.
The pound is sinking, the peso's failing,
the lira's reeling and it’s feeling quite appalling. The market's bottom has fallen right out and only the strong are survivors.
The pound is sinking, the peso's failing,
the lira's reeling and feeling quite appalling. The market's bottom has fallen right out and only the strong are survivors.

Well I fear, my dear, that it's eminently clear,
that you can't see the trees for the forest.
Your father was an extraordinary man, but you don't seem to have inherited many of his mannerisms. Many of his mannerisms.

The pound is sinking, the peso's failing,
the lira's reeling and feeling quite appalling.
