Round and round and everything keeps tumblin' down Make a sideways move Till you're standin' at the edge of town 'Cause everything in this world's got you turned around Now how many times must we play this game Of hide and seek between ourselves? Speak about ideals Pa**ed on from somebody else? While actually The truth is only what you do When you consider and then be honest With yourself and nobody else Round and round and everything keeps tumblin' down Make a sideways move Till you're standin' at the edge of town 'Cause everything in this world's got you turned around Now life is strange when you think About the paradoxes we all live around Well, teach the young to love their neighbors But make sure that they grow up Well, love's just a game We play to occupy our time
While everybody turns aside Hides their eyes with what's inside Round and round and everything keeps tumblin' down Make a sideways move Till you're standin' at the edge of town 'Cause everything in this world's got you turned around Now what's the good of this life you've seen If no one's hungry for your lines? Oh, you can write a poem or song To amuse your mind But relationships we need Can only come from those who got no clothes But they can take it Without the fear of living naked Round and round and everything keeps tumblin' down Make a sideways move Till you're standin' at the edge of town 'Cause everything in this world's got you turned around Yeah, everything in this world keeps bringing you down Everything in this world keeps bringing you down
