"One More Ride On The Merry-Go-Round" lyrics
"One More Ride On The Merry-Go-Round"
Look at the world I have conquered
I've won every spin of the wheel
I get everything I go after
They ask me how does it feel
I tell them that I'd trade the moon
For a string with an orange balloon
And the days when my only dream
Was a dish of vanilla ice cream
Give me one more chance at the midway
Let me laugh and be gay as a clown
Give me back the world I remember
One more ride on the merry go round
I do my shopping in Paris
My clothes are Balmain and Dior
I have money to buy friends and lovers
Well, isn't that what it's for?
But when I go to my bedroom
And stare at my hand painted sky
I think of a world far behind me
A world that my money can't buy
Give me one more chance at the midway
Let me dance with my feet off the ground
Give me back the world I remember
One more ride on the merry go round
One more ride on the merry go round
One more ride on the merry go round
One more ride on the merry go round

Hit the ground, baby...

Everything was so grand

I'm not just one of your many toys
You don't own me
Don't say I can't go with other boys
And don't tell me what to do
And don't tell me what to say
And, please, when I go out with...
Nina Simone - "I Want A Little Sugar In My Bowl" I want a little sugar
In my bowl
I want a little sweetness
Down in my soul
I could stand some lovin'
Oh so bad
I feel so funny and I feel so sad
I want a little steam
On my clothes
Maybe I can fix...
