Watching The Wheels
John Lennon
People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
When I say that I'm o.k. well they look at me kind of strange
When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall
Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game
People say I'm lazy dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
Don't you miss the big time boy you're no longer on the ball
I just had to let it go
No longer riding on the merry
Ah, people asking questions lost in confusion
I really love to watch them roll
Well I tell them there's no problem, only solutions
Well they shake their heads and they look at me as if I've lost my mind
I tell them there's no hurry
I'm just sitting here doing time
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it goNo longer riding on the merry-go-round
