Lyrics
Middle-Class-Merry-Go-Round
© David Clupper
Verse
I lay awake last night asking why we fuss and fight
Over time and money.
Do you realize the time we spend apart
Is to make money to buy time?
Can it be our love’s been bought
By a life that we both sought yesterday, yesterday?
But how were we to know twenty years ago
That life could get so complex, so complex.
Chorus
Now we’re living on a middle-class merry-go-round.
It takes us up and down, round and round.
Now my head is spinning.
Verse
A dollar earned, a dollar burned,
You’d think by now we might have learned
How to play, play that game.
Years that drifted by like snow, simple days of long ago
Melt away, melt away.
Chorus
Bridge
The kids need new Keds; the taxman is here.
Mom needs her meds; there’s a bug in my beer.
Life is a rush, no time for us.
What am I supposed to do?
I only ever wanted to be in love with you.
On a middle-class merry-go-round…
In love with you, on a middle-class merry-go-round.
