merry go 'round

Another dawn, another life
Not smart enough to dodge the knife
Don’t snap his bones, don’t grind his teeth
Don’t taste so good enough for them to eat

Wouldn’t it be something if this only happened once upon a…
Time it cost him somethin’ and it’s addin’ up, addin’ up

It’s the same, always the same
Let the merry-go round spin around again  x 2
No stoppin’ today

Tidy up, tuck his shirt
Drink just enough to dull the hurt
It’s not his walk, it’s not his style
Can’t come up with another salesman smile

Don’t go where you wanna go
Another dream gets crushed to pay the toll
Don’t go where you wanna go
If it pays the bills but it sucks his will is it worth it, worth it?
