AND THE WORLD GOES 'ROUND

And The World Goes 'Round

Lyrics by Hal Pollock

Sometimes we’re up
Sometimes we’re down
Sometimes were lost 
Sometimes were found
It’s just the beginning 
But my head is spinning 
And the world goes ‘round
 
Sometimes we win
Sometimes we lose
Sometimes we don’t have an option to choose 
We’re constantly spinning but don’t hear a sound
And the world goes ‘round 
 
Spinning in circles in time and space 
Always in motion but in the same place 
It’s the darndest of things and it’s sure to confound 
How do we keep our two feet on the ground?
 
Sometimes we rise 
Some times we fall 
Sometimes we just can’t make sense of it all 
I’m getting dizzy
My head’s in a tizzy 
And the world goes ‘round
 
Sometimes I’m right 
Sometimes I’m wrong 
Sometimes I can’t figure where I belong 
I’m running in circles can’t get where I’m bound
And the world goes round
 
We all should fall off but were standing right here 
Could somebody please make it perfectly clear?
It’s the way of the world it’s all so profound
How to stand still while we’re spinning around 
 
Spinning in circles in time and space 
Always in motion but in the same place 
It’s the darndest of things and its sure to confound 
How do we keep our two feet on the ground?
