Carousel

Carnivals and cotton candy

Carousels and calliopes

Fortune-tellers in glass cases

We will always remember these

Merry-go-rounds quickly turning

Quickly turning for you and me

And the whole world madly turning

Turning, turning 'till you can't see

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

And now we go around

Again we go around

And now we spin around

We're high above the ground

And down again around

And up again around

So high above the ground

We feel we've got to yell

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

We're on a ferris wheel

A crazy ferris wheel

A wheel within a wheel

And suddenly we feel

The stars begin to reel

And down again around

And up again around

And up again around

So high above the ground

We feel we've got to yell

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

Carnivals and cotton candy

Carousels and calliopes

Crazy clowns chasing brass rings

Soda pop and rock-candy trees

Merry-go-rounds quickly turning

Quickly turning for you and me

And the whole world madly turning

Turning, turning 'till you can't see

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

And now we go around

Again we go around

And now we spin around

We're high above the ground

And down again around

And up again around

So high above the ground

We feel we've got to yell

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

We're on a ferris wheel

A crazy ferris wheel

A wheel within a wheel

And suddenly we feel

The stars begin to reel

And down again around

And up again around

And up again around

So high above the ground

We feel we've got to yell

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

And now we go around

Again we go around

And now we spin around

We're high above the ground

And down again around

And up again around

So high above the ground

We feel we've got to yell

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

Carnivals and cotton candy

Carousels and calliopes

Kewpie-dolls with painted faces

Tricky shell games and missing peas

Merry-go-rounds quickly turning

Quickly turning for you and me

And the whole world madly turning

Turning, turning 'till you can't see

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

And now we go around

Again we go around

And now we spin around

We're high above the ground

And down again around

And up again around

So high above the ground

We feel we've got to yell

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

We're on a ferris wheel

A crazy ferris wheel

A wheel within a wheel

And suddenly we feel

The stars begin to reel

And down again around

And up again around

And up again around

So high above the ground

We feel we've got to yell

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

And now we go around

Again we go around

And now we spin around

We're high above the ground

And down again around

And up again around

So high above the ground

We feel we've got to yell

We're on a carousel

A crazy carousel

La, la, la, la - la, la, la, la

La, la, la - la, la, la, la, la - la!
