We're spinning 'round like tops
We're flying in our own planes
And either way you go
Your car is gonna crash
And that's the humor of this
And that's the beauty of it all
They're joking all the time
I'm drowning in their waves
I'm amazed at just how little
My world reflects their gaze
But their talk is only talk
And I wouldn't change my tracks
Cuz their heart it only beats
With their money and status
And that's the humor of this
And that's the beauty of it all
I really tried my best
When I saw the chance was mine
But a chance is what you take
When you put it on the line
Countries rise and fall
Just like me upon these waves
I'm shooting for the sun
As if I had a say
You're the fountain of song
