River's getting higher

No wood for the fire

They saw the messiah

But I guess I missed him again

That brings my score to a hundred and ten



The water's getting closer

Better ring up the grocer

Stack up the potatoes

Oh, Jack are you ever coming back

Will your operatic soul turn black?



Keep me turning, oh keep me

Keep me burning, for your sun

Keep me turning

Don't you leave me till the very last



Keep me turning, I'm hanging on

Stop me yearning, I've had enough

Keep me turning

While I hand in my backstage pass



Children are smiling

Parents are wining

Bow tie tying

For the big day ahead real soon

Is there really gonna be no room



I've got a ticket

Just gotta get past the picket

They say that the trick is to walk in backwards

Like your walking out

I guess the lord's wearing glasses now



Keep me turning, Oh keep me on

Keep me burning, For your sun

Keep me turning

Don't you leave me till the very last



Keep me turning, I'm hanging on

Stop me yearning, I've had enough

Keep me turning

While I hand in my backstage pass



Solo



Keep me turning, Oh keep me on

Keep me burning, For your sun

Keep me turning

Don't you leave me till the very last



Keep me turning, I'm hanging on

Stop me yearning, I've had enough

Keep me turning

While I hand in my backstage pass



Keep me turning...
