Times and seasons Fashions change And when I sing rhyme and reason Go round and round and round and round here Kids on carousels And all the whims of culture spin Vicious circles Go round and round and round and round here Chorus And the wind of change is blowing Around and round and round and round And there's a spirit in the breeze Around around here To set the wheel of change a-rolling Around and round and round and round here Trials of living Go round and round and round and round Without a job it's hard to make the ends to meet Around around here A single mother came to see me Around around here And she said old clothes and other hand me downs Go round and round and round and round Can't get the bare necessities Around around here Overcast is the outlook for the undercla** Around around around around here Politicians push their papers Around and round and round and round The institutes of power play Around around here They make mistakes we pay the penalty Around around around around here And our morals now are sleeping Around and round and round and round It just depends on how you feel Around around here Spreading the virus of our pleasure Around around around around here Chorus And to start the tables turning And the wind of change is blowing Around and round and round and round And I can feel it in the breeze Set the wheel of change in motion Let's have the final revolution now Set the wheel of chance and let it roll away Set the wheel of change and let it be Set the wheel of change and let it roll away Set the wheel of change - set it free
