The Greatest Show On Earth - Strangelove

Mary Poppins killed a dream today

Locked it up and threw the key away

It was a very old and dusty dream

Everybody knows —

There’s no time for happiness today

Got a date for lunch a PLASTIC TRAY

Got a deal to sign her life away

Got an early grave she’s gotta make

And we are all insane

Hold on Slow down

You’ll never get to heaven on this merry-go-round

Turn on Turn round

You know you’re going nowhere

If you keep on going round

The merry-go-round

Christopher Robin blew his friends away

Wrapped 'em up and moved up Barnsley way

Got a job he’s milking PLASTIC TRAYS

Got a line in filling early graves

Round and round and round and round he goes

Where he stops well no-one seems to know why

They’ve forgotten just what he could be He’s the same the same as you and me We are all insane

Hold on Slow down

You’ll never get to heaven on this merry-go-round

Turn on Turn round

You know you’re going nowhere

If you keep on going round

The merry-go-round

The merry-go-round

Where you go-there you go-round

Go on Slow down

You’ll never get to heaven on this merry-go-round

Turn on Turn round

You know you’re going nowhere

If you keep on going round

The merry-go-round

La la la la etc.
