TJ on a Spree Songtext
von Paulusma

Today we′ll turn the park
Into a journey on a swing
And the carousel we're ridin′
Like puppets on a string
With all the people dressed up
Almost like it's halloween

Today we'll fly the meadow
On silvermounted beasts
And up and down we′re glidin′
As gulls' wings over seas
With all its movement out of bounds
Desire to be free

Today we′ll guide the horses
From the orchard to the ark
And the appletrees surrounding
Have lived there from the start
Round swingin' round
Spinnin′ the world around


Today fairies and friends are havin' a real good time
By now the carousel′s a-changin' to overdrive

Today we build our fences
And our castles on the beach
And the tune we keep on playin'
Is all some wicked scheme
Made up by hurdy-gurdy men
And crooked balladeers

So why not turn the parc
Into a mental jamboree
With generals and gunners
And TJ on a spree
With all the people dyin′
At the shooting gallery

Round swingin′ round
Spinnin' the world around

Today fairies and friends are havin′ a hell of a time
By now the carousel's a-changin′ to overdrive
Round and round
Swingin' round and round
