Pretty girl of 16 -- has fun and runs crazy

Ruined girl of 16 -- now a mother grows lazy

Next a 16-year old baby -- like mother grows lazy

And her stomach is churning -- whilst her eyes keep on turning

Round and around

Getting no higher from the ground

Round and around, round and around

The circle has an empty sound...



Father inflicts discipline -- boy rebels against him

He leaves for the big town -- for love and adventure

But the words he first heard -- unlike his instincts run deeper

Now boy beats his children -- if they disobey him

And the cat riddled with worms -- chases his tail round

And around, round and around...

Getting no higher from the ground

Round and around, round and around

The circle has an empty sound...

The endless full circle for the next in line

The endless full circle...

Take the red line, the green line, the silver or blue

Any line you can think of -- except for the yellow

Take a trip with your family -- and see where they go

Give them a free ticket -- it's the best thing to do



And if you wind up on the circle line

Hell, it's not from lack of options

Then if you run into the yellow

Well that's up to you



Round and around

Getting no higher from the ground

Round and around

The circle has an empty sound

The endless full circle -- for the next in line

The endless full circle -- are you the next in line

Round and around
