lyrics
No time to get it done, I got three cigarettes and a stick of gum
I don’t know where the money went, I got no side mirror the antenna’s bent
No bullets and a rusty gun, I’m gonna drive due west to the setting sun
Hear shouts and broken glass, oh this goddamned day just kicked my ass
The turning wheel will spin you round, Take you up into the clouds
The turning pool will drag you down, into a world devoid of sound
The turning wheel will spin you round, Bring you up and right back down
The turning pool will drag you down, into a world devoid of sound
Travel hard to reach the goal, to inspire and spark the soul
Talent seems to serve you well, good intentions the way to Hell
The turning wheel will spin you round, Bring you up and right back down
The turning pool will drag you down, into a world devoid of sound
My thoughts move so fast, gonna catch an idea as it whizzes past
You know I’m the champion, of stretching myself out way too thin
Gotta find a way at last, to make a big score and grab that stash
Don’t mind being on the run, but I’m getting pretty tired and it ain’t no fun
The turning wheel will spin you round, Take you up into the clouds
The turning pool will drag you down, into a world devoid of sound
The turning wheel will spin you round, Bring you up and right back down
The turning pool will drag you down, into a world devoid of sound
Travel hard to reach the goal, to inspire and spark the soul
Talent seems to serve you well, good intentions the way to Hell
The turning wheel will spin you round, Bring you up and right back down
The turning pool will drag you down, into a world devoid of sound
So many people that I should elude, while living off of gas station food
I got a friend outside of town, who’s got a good place I can hunker down
Bag of noodles and the coffee’s brewed, I’m watchin TV and I know I’m screwed
On the news I look and see, a picture of myself staring back at me
The turning wheel will spin you round, Take you up into the clouds
The turning pool will drag you down, into a world devoid of sound
The turning wheel will spin you round, Bring you up and right back down
The turning pool will drag you down, into a world devoid of sound
Travel hard to reach the goal, to inspire and spark the soul
Talent seems to serve you well, good intentions the way to Hell
The turning wheel will spin you round, Bring you up and right back down
The turning pool will drag you down, into a world devoid of sound
