lyrics

(Verse 1)
Well hello my dear friend
Please let me recommend
Our new ride that’s ever so fun
Jump on board if you dare
Thrills and spills in the air
A sensation that’s second to none
It rotates and gyrates
It goes up it goes down
It goes forwards not backwards
And round and around
A most wondrous delight
A magnificent sight
So do please take your seats
As I start up the Merry-Go-Round

(Verse 2)
Let me strap you in tight
As I switch on the lights
They start flashing hypnotically
Then the music starts playing
Its noise penetrating
Beats time mechanically
A beguiling attraction I think you’ll agree
An equestrian ballet you must ride with me
A most wondrous delight
A magnificent sight
So please stay in your seats
As we ride the great Merry-Go...........

(Bridge)
..Round-a-bout
Scream and shout
Round the bend
Driven to madness there is no end
So we keep on riding the Merry, Merry, -Never -Contrary-Go.....
..Round-a-bout
Scream and shout
Round the bend
Driven to madness there is no end
So we keep on riding the Merry, Merry, -Never -Contrary

(Chorus)
Now we’ve enticed you
We’d like to convert you
So sit still try not to resist
It’s perfectly painless
We’ll tap your subconscious
We’re certain, you will enlist
It’s an addictive system you can’t live without
“We will make your brain perfect ‘fore we blow it out!”
A most wondrous delight
A magnificent sight
You will stay in your seats
As we ride the great Merry-Go-Round

(Middle section)
We do hope you will get an obsession
To want lots of things in your possession
For then you’ll tow the line
And we’ll all get on fine
As we ride side-by-side in succession

(Bridge)
Round-a-bout
Scream and shout
Round the bend
Driven to madness there is no end
So we keep on riding the Merry, Merry-Never -Contrary

(Chorus)
Now we’ve enticed you
We’d like to convert you
So sit still, try not to resist
It’s perfectly painless
We’ll tap your subconscious
We’re certain, you will enlist
It’s an addictive system you can’t live without
“We will make your brain perfect ‘fore we blow it out!”
A most wondrous delight
A magnificent sight
You will stay in your seats
As we ride the great Merry-Go- (what a show, here we go)
Ride the great Merry-Go-Round.
