Madness - Round We Go
Round we go again
Round and round we go
Round we go again
Red cheeks and a pair of wings
Is this what mother gave him
He'll hear the angels sing
On high for all to praise him
Gods gift and no one wants to know him
She'll sing a lullaby and life will show him
The sun comes up and sun goes down
The wheels come off and the deals go down
The news comes out and the star is found
We play the game and go round and round
White teeth and a knowing smile
You'll hear no words of wisdom
Her son is in denial
She hopes the world forgives him
Gods gift and no one wants to know him
She'll sing a lullaby and life will show him

The wheels come off and the deals go down
The news comes out and the star is found
We play the game and go round and round
Round and round we go
Round we go again
Round and round we go
Round we go again
Her son her little boy
Too sly too cruel to mention
Well crafted lies deployed
He won't accept redemption
Gods gift and no one wants to know him
She'll sing a lullaby and life will show him
The sun comes up and sun goes down
The wheels come off and the deals go down
The news comes out and the star is found
We play the game and go round and round
Round and round we go
Round we go again
Round and round we go
Round we go again
