Said and tongue tied
It's got a memory and refrain

And we die and we live and we're born again
Turn me inside out
What can I say

Merry go round (up and around we go we go)
Up and around we go
Merry go round (up and around we go we go)
Up and around we go
Merry go round (up and around we go we go)
Up and around we go
Merry go round (up and around we go we go)
Up and around we go

You play
Air guitar for a band
And I, I'll break
The eardrums in the back
And I'll back you up
As your frontman

"Hello? Oh, hi"

Now that sounds right frontman write the
Songs that say
"I like that!"

Hold on, I'm calling, calling back to the ball
And we'll dazzle them all
Hold on

Hold on, I'm calling, calling back to the ball
And we'll dazzle them all
Hold on

Pick up the phone
And I want to go
And I want to go home now
Pick up the phone

Up and around we go

Lady lady, come on in
Set me free, come on in

Sentimental heart breaking
Everything is my fault
Sentimental heart breaking
Everything is my fault

Hold on, I'm calling, calling back to the ball
And we'll dazzle them all

Hold on, I'm calling, calling back to the ball
And we'll dazzle them all

Hold on, I'm calling, calling back to the ball
And we'll dazzle them all

Hold on, I'm calling, calling back to the ball

And we'll dazzle them all

Hold on, I'm calling, calling back to the ball
And we'll dazzle them all, h-hold on
