I'd like to tell you about a very old dance

Ring-a-ring o'roses, renaissance trance

And though it's old the steps come easy to you

You just do, do, do what you have to do



Yeah, yeah come rolling

Yeah, yeah, ina passacaglia



You sense a woman, say Miss mary Go-Round

Atishoo, atishoo, we all fall down

The two of you will find your own way

Passacaglia goes down, down, down all the days



Let's go up to the mountain top

Let's go swimming in your pond again

We move in circles 'round and 'round, lift our bodies

off the ground

Let's seek that volcano dear

Your water fountain should be near

Daddy's with the secret police

That might be why I'm hard to please
