"Carousel Ride" lyrics

"Carousel Ride"

I think I had more luck at my other job
The way to the top, grab drinks at the bottom
Soldiers on the mantle, a pain in my side
Take a cheap spin, and say it's alright

Starting little fires is my middle name
I smoke what I got when I can't relate
I got to fix my eyes on the future, two thousands
Spins

Doo doo doo doo

Get myself fat, and get myself thin
I'm trotting through life with occasional wins
I thought it be cool to calm my wits
Oops

Doo doo doo doo

On this ride, I'm the Captain
All my friends call me Shackleton, with one I
I ride high, get magic wands
And unicorns and action

Round and round and round I go
Hoping for a miracle
I got no place to run and hide
Guess I'll take a spin on a Carousel Ride
Just the way the stars align
It's not a reason to get blind, no
Take another spin on a Carousel Ride

I think I was a bird in another life
Maybe that's why I'm prone to flight
And I do like heights

When all the strongest winds are blowing my way
And the reaper comes to take my breath away
Yeah, I go! And I'll dance in the fire!
And then I'll do it again!

Round and round and round I go
Hoping for a miracle
I got no place to run and hide
Guess I'll take a spin on a Carousel Ride
Just the way the stars align
It's not a reason to get blind, no
Take another spin on a Carousel Ride

Round and round and round I go
Hoping for a miracle
I got no place to run and hide
Guess I'll take a spin on a Carousel Ride
Just the way the stars align
It's not a reason to get blind, no
Take another spin on a Carousel Ride
