Merry-go-round Lyrics

Look at you all sad and tear

Soaking up another conspiracy theory

They're bugging you through your mobile phone

If you stick with them you'll never ever be alone

All these things we've always understood

But there's nothing happening out there quite as it should

You're telling me now how I've got it so wrong

While I look at you and zone out and try to stay strong is this gonna take long

Who was it that let you in should we be concerned

Thanks to you I've woken up with new things that I've learned

Seems to me that nothing here is quite as I once found

But you'll never get me strapped in tightly on your merry-go-round

Where did you come from and why do we get the pleasure

Are you going to thrill me with some or other treasure

If I don't come up for air then soon I will be drowned

But you'll never get me to spin with you on your merry-go-round ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

There's so much going on but I dare not ask

If it's doing the rounds then I'd gladly be the last to know

No problem finding you an audience

There are far too many people blessed with ignorance

Someone who can hang on to every word you start with the ridiculous and end with the absurd

It's all out there if we'd only listen I've got no idea quite what I'm missing

So TikTok, X and reality TV

And all the other rubbish the flotsum and jetsum that floats on the sea

Who was it that let you in should we be concerned

Thanks to you I've woken up with new things that I've learned

Seems to me that nothing here is quite as I once found

But you'll never get me strapped in tightly on your merry-go-round

Where did you come from and why do we get the pleasure

Are you going to thrill me with some or other treasure

If I don't come up for air then soon I will be drowned

But you'll never get me to spin with you on your merry-go-round

You may see me hiding

Somewhere out of touch

I know what I believe in

But thank you thank you thank you very much
