A and B were partners in crime

Happy together for a very long time

Until one day A went away

And told poor B she could no longer stay


Now naturally B was very upset

But she knew for A it wasn't over yet

For a good few months, A was all alone

Both A and B knew he had no right to moan

As what goes around comes around kid


6 months on B met C

But the spark wasn't there, it wasn't to be

B knew it would hurt but couldn't go on

Soon all C knew was that B had gone


Wise old B knew she'd done wrong

And that a miserable time was coming on

But now B knows she's done the time for her crime

And B and C now get along fine

As B knew, what goes around comes around kid


After hurting C B decided to move on

That was until a chap named D came along

She wanted D without being committed

She should have known he wasn't happy with it


So, D fucked off with his ex-Mrs. E

And E started on B for what she'd had with D

But in the end D and E split up

And B was left smiling, D and E in a rut

As they didn't know

What goes around comes around kid


As it turns out, B enjoyed being single

Walking around playing the field she would mingle

Going out to flirt every night

Until one day F came in sight


Not through anything she had planned

F soon became her man

But F's got history

So, B's already after G

F doesn't know the player gets played

As what goes around comes around kid


So now it's time to tie up some loose ends

C is happy with H, one of B's friends

B's a bit worried she will lose C altogether

But she will always know it's her fault whatever


A's got with I, D and E are on and off

B and F are still together, not sharing a lot

We're all players in this game, many more involved

J, K, L, M, N, too many to name them all

But while G's just in the distance he will have the last laugh


As in the end, again my friend

What goes around comes around kid
