A greyhound who had lots of speed was surely bound to fail
|
For morning, noon and evening, he'd be chasing his own tail
|
He was running around in circles
|
Running around in circles getting nowhere
|
|
A squirrel in a treadmill cage, around and 'round he'd go
|
You'd think that he'd be in a rage, but seems he didn't know
|
He was running around in circles
|
Running around in circles getting nowhere
|
|
The man who runs a carousel is often heavy-hearted
|
He rides all day, but sad to say, he winds up where he started
|
|
So, concentrate and clear your mind of schemes that never last
|
Or you'll wake up someday and find your chances all have passed
|
You've been running around in circles
|
Running around in circles getting nowhere
|
Getting nowhere very fast
|
