Lyrics

You have always thinking of her
You're in love and you don't know what to say
But I saw her at the fair and she feels the same way
She was married by the merry-go-round

The merry-go-round
How merrily we go round
How merrily we go round
The merry-go-round

He was the first one of the day
He was the last one of the night
Oh hold me tight, hold me tight

They said you were wrongened
But I can see in your eyes
How you are gentle and wise
And you had the good stuff
Oh there's a parade of girls outside
That boy's so shy
Why'd you punch out his lights?

He was the first one of the day
He was the last one of the night
Oh mop it up, she'll be alright
Mop it up, she'll be alright

There's a parade on the hall outside
Come on and feel the air outside

Said what I like most about you pete, is your girlfriend and your shoes
And it's nearly half past five
Can we swap again
Half past five, can we swap again

Oh there's a parade of girls outside
That boy's so shy, why'd you punch out his light?

You should get some sun on your face
You've been sitting like a lord in the bath for days
It's getting so I don't even know you

We get away with doing the little that we can
We mustn't take it too far my friend
The albion needs every man woman and child she can get her hands on
