Merry Go Down

[Verse 1]
When you're brushing your teeth, what do you see?
Washed up, spat out idiocy when
Your wive's writing letters to men from her teens
Your children are burning the bible

When you're tying your shoe, how do you feel?
The payroll makes up for the fact that you're ill
And sick of the sight of your pavement grey suit
And the view from the office box window

[Chorus]
Just go back to bed if you feel like it
The merry go round will wake you up again
Don't cry, we'll all turn to dust in the end
The merry go round will bring us back again

[Verse 2]
When shes waiting at home fast asleep
Dreaming of promises that you could never keep
And the smell of her perfume, one that's not hers
A life full of lies, but things could be worse so

[Chorus]
Just go back to bed if you feel like it
The merry go round will wake you up again
Don't cry, we'll all turn to dust in the end
The merry go round will bring us back again

[Bridge]
Washed up, spat out
There's a lot like you
Cheap thrills, late nights
Do you realise
The millions of children are burning their bibles
Fighting and cussing, you're the example

Washed up, spat out
There's a lot like you
Cheap thrills, late nights
Do you realise
The millions of children are burning their bibles
You're the example, what an example

[Chorus]
Just go back to bed if you feel like it
The merry go round will wake you up again
Don't cry, we'll all turn to dust in the end
The merry go round will bring us back again

Just go back to bed if you feel like it
The merry go round will wake you up again
Don't cry, we'll all turn to dust in the end
The merry go round will bring us back again
