Lyrics
The Way The World Goes Round
Tim Bays/Curt Bair
© 1996 Sony/ATV Tunes LLC (ASCAP), Acuff-Rose Music, Inc. (BMI)
Got your tree-climbing dogs and your mouse-loving cats
There's gay Republicans and rich Democrats
If you want to go to heaven they gotta put you in the ground
It'll turn your head the way the world goes round
If you want a girl to love you, you can't let it show
If you want to keep her, you gotta let her go
You want to be her king you better be her clown
It'll turn your head the way the world goes round
Chorus
It just keeps spinning like a big old top
Sometimes I wish that it would stop
Cause I get so dizzy I got to go lay down
It'll turn your head the way the world goes round
How come the rich man never has enough?
Why do we hurt the ones we love?
It's all inside out and it's upside down
It'll turn your head the way the world goes round...Chorus
