Swings and Roundabouts |
| Six o’clock, it’s nearly dark |
| Kicking leaves up in the park |
| My hands in pockets by the green |
| Wishing that my nails were clean |
| I lean my back against a tree |
| A black bird sits and stares at me |
| Reflected in his dark black eye |
| The legacy of all my eyes… Now |
| Upstairs in the house tonight |
| I’m coming down to see you |
| I won’t stay in, you won’t come out |
| What are we gonna do about it |
| Upstairs in the house tonight |
| I’m coming down to see you |
| I won’t stay in, you won’t come out |
| Little bit swings and roundabouts |
| Now ten o’clock, I’m drinking beer |
| I don’t know why I come in here |
| Well it’s cold outside, yes that’s true |
| And I don’t really have much else to do |
| There’s someone standing at my arm |
| I think he means to do some harm |
| 'Cause he says he used to be a hero |
| Staring down into his beer… Oh |
| Upstairs in the house tonight |
| I’m coming down to see you |
| I won’t stay in, you won’t come out |
| What are we gonna do about it |
| Upstairs in the house tonight |
| I’m coming down to see you |
| I won’t stay in, you won’t come out |
| Little bit swings and roundabouts |
| Now first… Number one |
| Can anybody really ever know someone |
| Two, three |
| Why is everybody talking about me |
| Four, five |
| Is it just for this that we strive |
| Six, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven |
| Two figures together add up to eleven |
| Upstairs in the house tonight |
| I’m coming down to see you |
| I won’t stay in, you won’t come out |
| What are we gonna do about it |
| Upstairs in the house tonight |
| I’m coming down to see you |
| I won’t stay in, you won’t come out |
| Little bit swings and roundabouts |
| Listen to me laughing, Mary |
| Ha, ha, ha… |
