The Skeleton and The Roundabout Lyrics

[Chorus]
Climb aboard my roundabout
Climb aboard my roundabout

[Verse 1]
I am the fairground man at heart
I run the roundabout this part
I fill this fair, but custom have I none
I turn the handle 'round so fast
It makes my elbow ache
Nobody seems to care
No one rides upon my roundabout
No longer anymore
Oh, what a horrid fair

[Chorus]
Climb aboard my roundabout
Climb aboard my roundabout
Climb aboard my roundabout
Climb aboard my roundabout

[Interlude 1]
Money, there is none
I'm thinner than a skellington

[Verse 2]
But wait a minute, I'm so thin
Then all these aches and pains
Could be a chance for me
I could be a horror
Or a ghost in a ghost train
I think I'll go and see
I meet the man who runs the ghost train
He says, "You're just great!"

[Interlude 2]
"I'll pay you top-class wages
If you'll just hang from this gate"

[Verse 3]
A year is passing, lots of food
And money come my way
Oh, lucky man am I
But who's this telling me, "You're fired"?
"You're much too fat to be a ghost
Be on your way!"
So here I am

[Chorus]
Climb aboard my roundabout
Climb aboard my roundabout
Climb aboard my roundabout
Climb aboard my roundabout

[Outro]
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la
La, la, la, la
La, la, la, la, la, la, la...
