Go and fetch the captain’s log and tear the pages out.
We’re on our way to nowhere now, can’t bring the helm about.
None of us are left in any doubt.
We won’t be back again.
I’ll tip my hat to the new Constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
Grab your coat and grab your hat, baby
Leave your worries on the doorstep
Just direct your feet
On the sunny side of the street
Found my coat, grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream
Visions of paradise, cloudless skies I see
Rainbows on the hill, blue onyx on the sea
Come see, ah, ah, ah
And the sounds in my mind just come to me
Come see, come see
And the call of her eyes, makes waterfalls
Of me, of me
The kingdom of heaven lies inside
Makes a circle with the turning tide
Now the circle is complete
And the heart and mind they need
The kingdom of heaven lies inside
I love visions of you endlessly
I love visions of you endlessly
We’re captive on the carousel of time
We can’t return we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game
Riding along on a carousel, trying to catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel, will I catch up to you?
Horses chasing 'cause they’re racing
So they ain’t so far
On a carousel
On a carousel
Nearer and nearer by changing horses,
Still so far away
People fighting for their places just get in my way
Soon you’ll leave and then I’ll lose you
Still we’re going 'round
You got me going in circles (oh round and round I go)
I’m spun out over you (I need you baby)
Over you (I need you baby)
Spun out over you
(I need you baby, I need you bab-) (oh, baby)
I’m spun (I need you baby) I said I’m spun out over you (I need you baby)
Spun out over you (I need you baby, I need you baby, I need you baby)
I feel like a spinning top or a dreidel
The spinning don’t stop when you leave the cradle
You just slow down
Round and around this world you go
Spinning through the lives of the people you know
We all slow down
How you gonna keep on turnin’ from day to day?
How you gonna keep from turnin’ your life away?
Dizzy
I’m so dizzy, my head is spinning
Like a whirlpool, it never ends
And it’s you, girl, making it spin
You’re making me dizzy
Like a door that keeps revolving
In a half-forgotten dream
Like the ripples from a pebble
Someone tosses in a stream
Like a clock whose hands are sweeping
Past the minutes of its face
And the world is like an apple
Whirling silently in space
Like the circles that you find
In the windmills of your mind
How does it feel?
How does it feel?
To be on your own
With no direction home?
A complete unknown
Like a rolling stone
Baby mine
Feel so good
All the time
If you would
Well, the girl knows how to love me
Both night and day
She knows how to make me feel so fine
All over in every way
She’s there to love me
Both day and night
Never grumbles or fusses
Always treats me right
Never running in the streets
And leaving me alone
She knows a woman’s place
Is right there, now, in her home
You show us everything you’ve got
You keep on dancin’ and the room gets hot
You drive us wild, we’ll drive you crazy
You say you wanna go for a spin
The party’s just begun, we’ll let you in
You drive us wild, we’ll drive you crazy
You keep on shoutin’, you keep on shoutin’
I wanna rock and roll all night and party every day
We’re having a party
Everybody’s swinging
Dancing to the music
On the radio
It’s a dead man’s party
Who could ask for more?
Everybody’s coming
Leave your body at the door
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Beaten, why for
Can’t take much more
(Here we go, here we go, here we go now)
Only the strong survive,
Only the strong survive
Yeah, you gotta be strong
You better hold on
