Lyrics
World Keep Turnin' Round
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Ain't got no brains,
Ain't got no looks.
Surround yourself with a bunch of crooks.
Everyone is watchin',
See what trick you'll pull this time.
That's right.
You ain't got no sense
Of what's goin' on.
You ain't got no answers,
Except what's wrong.
Get yourself elected
Doin' every trick in the book.
No shit.
Who ever said you had to win your votes?
You've got morality right down the throat.
Who ever said you need the law on your side,
When your money is a million miles wide?
But the world keep on turnin' round,
To tell you that you're goin' down.
Yeah, the world keep on turnin' round,
To tell you that you're goin' down, down, down, down, down.
You wonder why
So many hate.
You never listen,
But you better anticipate.
You might have won the battle,
But the war is far from over yet.
That's right.
So in the meantime
Just do your best.
Goin' 'round the world
Clearin' up your daddy's mess.
But you ain't foolin' no one,
Except the folks in your back yard.
Better believe it.
Who ever told you you could be the king?
Who ever said that you knew anythin'?
What makes you think that you have got the right
To turn the rainbows into black and white?
But the world keep on turnin' round,
Takes more than you to bring it down.
Yeah, the world keep on turnin' round,
The only way you're goin' is down, down, down, down, down.
Yeah.
The world keep on turnin' round,
To tell you that you're goin' down.
The world keep on turnin' round,
To tell you that you're goin' down, down, down, down, down.
World keep on turnin' round,
Takes more than you to bring it down.
Yeah, the world keep on turnin' round,
To tell you that you're goin' down, down, down, down, down.
The world keep turnin'.
The world keep turnin'.
The world keep turnin'.
The only way you're goin' is down, down, down, down, down,
Down, down, down, down, down.
Down, down, down, down.
