I tried to be man.

I tried to play the part.

Thinking growing up was reaching out

And thinking on your own.

I've learned a little bit and firgured out the truth,

That everyone just wants to tell you what to do.



I've covered all the facts and stood them in a row

And after shooting all the ducks down 

I deciphered out the code.  

That it is just a trick and we are all the pawns

While the king and queen push us along.  



I know that the whole world is spinning around,

Spinning around, spinning around. 



The whole world is spinning around,

Spinning around, spinning around.



I've taken all I can.

I've taken a bit more.

I've been dealt a deck of cards to find,

The game is just a bore. 

Pledged my allegiance well to a cause I cannot mend,

Then to realize that this fight was all pretend.



Who knew that the whole world is spinning around?

Spinning around, spinning around.



The whole world is spinning around,

Spinning around, spinning around.



Though they have different faces, it's all the same,

While we were to play their game.



And what do I have left but a thin pile of sand

That has broken out the hour glass

And jumped into my hand,

A simple grain of salt alone in outer space

Revolving around a star to spawn a race.  



Who knew that the whole world is spinning around?

Spinning around, spinning around.



The whole world is spinning around,

Spinning around, spinning around.



Though they have different faces, it's all the same,

While we were to play their game.
