Wheels Songtext
von Levellers

Came up second best when he first came ′round here
In a town that's built on money, built on fear

Just don′t fake life
He'd been told a thousand times
See the wheels that were turning
Keep dragging us down
See the wheels that were turning
Keep dragging us down


He was amazed to see the fallen here
And he tried so very hard to fight the fear
Then when he saw the end, it weren't very far
It slipped from his grasp as he stumbled there in the dark

Just don′t fake life
He′d been told a thousand times
See the wheels that were turning
Keep dragging us down
See the wheels that were turning
Keep dragging us down


Just don't fake life
Just don′t fake life
You see the wheels that were turning
Keep dragging us down
See the wheels that were turning
Keep dragging
