Trash man didn't get my trash today, oh why because they want more pay
Buses on strike, want a raise in fare, so they can help pollute the air
You see but that's what makes the world go round, the up and down the carousel
Changing peoples heads around, go underground young man - yeah
People make the world go round
Yes they do
Wall Street losing dough on every share, they're blaming it on longer hair
Yes they are
Big men smoking in their easy chair, oh smoking fat cigars without a care
But that's what makes the world go round, the up and down the carousel
Changing peoples heads around, go underground young man - yeah
People make the world go round. (piano solo) But that's what makes the world go round, the up and down the carousel
Changing peoples heads around, go underground young man - yeah
People make the world go round
Yes they do
People make the world go round Repeat
