up in the world

Singer:art garfunkel

you've come up in the world

and it's all to your credit. you made something of your life

like you always said you would. but what ever happened to the girl

i used to know and all those halcyon days of love?

you've come up in the world

and it's such a shame. you made success of a dream

but it seems so empty now

with your weak excuses and your

condescending ways and

your all-too-frequent nights alone
