Lyrics English Roundabout - XTC

English Roundabout

People rushing round with no time to spare.
I’m so dizzy,
I’m neither here nor there.
In this traffic jam,
I just want to shout,
Let me off o' this English roundabout
English roundabout
And all the the horns go 'beep!
beep!'
All the people follow like sheep,
I’m full of light and sound,
Making my head go round, round.
Everyone is cursing under their breath,
I’m a passenger,
I feel close to death,
Hopeless situation,
I have no doubt.
Stop the madness, English roundabout
English roundabout
And all the cars go 'brum!
brum!'
And in my ears I feel a hum,
The neons blind my eyes,
All those tempers rise, rise.
Cars and buses go,
Puffing out their smoke,
Roll my window down,
I begin to choke.
