Lyrics Flying Merry-Go-Round - Barry McGuire

Flying Merry-Go-Round

We took a journey through a swirling pool
Spinnin' around in space
We got to thinkin' that it sure was cool
Called us the human race
Turnin' 'round and 'round and 'round
Spinnin' 'round and 'round and 'round
Goin' 'round and 'round and 'round
She’s a flyin' merry-go-round
Such a lovely merry-go-round
(Merry-go-round)
The very first couple got to foolin' around
Broke the life support system down
Whatever we did or however we tried
Everybody started to die
Turnin' 'round and 'round and 'round
Spinnin' 'round and 'round and 'round
Goin' 'round and 'round and 'round
She’s a flyin' merry-go-round
Such a lovely merry-go-round
(Merry-go-round)
The Builder / Designer had to come on board
Mendin' the broken day
The life support system now has been restored
He’s taken the death away
He’s taken the death away
Turnin' 'round and 'round and 'round
Spinnin' 'round and 'round and 'round
Goin' 'round and 'round and 'round
She’s a flyin' merry-go-round
Such a lovely merry-go-round
A highflyin' merry-go-round
