pppp    pp eople rushing round with no time to spare.  I'm so
pp       pp dizzy I'm neither here nor there, in this traffic
pp pp   pp jam  I  just  want  to  shout  let  me off o' this
pp   ppp english roundabout  english roundabout   and all the
pp  the horns go 'beep! beep!'     all the people follow like
sheep I'm   full of   light    and  sound making    my   head
go round,  round. everyone  is  cursing  under   their breath
I'm  a passenger, I feel   close  to death hopeless situation
I  have no   doubt  stop  the  madness,  english   roundabout
english  roundabout  and  all the   cars   go 'brum!   brum!'
and  in   my ears I   feel  a  hum the neons    blind my eyes
all   those  tempers    rise,  rise.  cars     and buses  go,
puffing  out their   smoke roll  my   window   down,  I begin
to  choke   I  have had enough,   I  just  want   to get  out
let me off o'  this  english roundabout  english  roundabout.
