The Greatest Show On Earth |
Mary Poppins killed a dream today |
Locked it up and threw the key away |
It was a very old and dusty dream |
Everybody knows — |
There’s no time for happiness today |
Got a date for lunch a PLASTIC TRAY |
Got a deal to sign her life away |
Got an early grave she’s gotta make |
And we are all insane |
Hold on Slow down |
You’ll never get to heaven on this merry-go-round |
Turn on Turn round |
You know you’re going nowhere |
If you keep on going round |
The merry-go-round |
Christopher Robin blew his friends away |
Wrapped 'em up and moved up Barnsley way |
Got a job he’s milking PLASTIC TRAYS |
Got a line in filling early graves |
Round and round and round and round he goes |
Where he stops well no-one seems to know why |
They’ve forgotten just what he could be He’s the same the same as you and me We are all insane |
Hold on Slow down |
You’ll never get to heaven on this merry-go-round |
Turn on Turn round |
You know you’re going nowhere |
If you keep on going round |
The merry-go-round |
The merry-go-round |
Where you go-there you go-round |
Go on Slow down |
You’ll never get to heaven on this merry-go-round |
Turn on Turn round |
You know you’re going nowhere |
If you keep on going round |
The merry-go-round |
La la la la etc. |
