Kites on a Carousel

WHO’D HAVE THOUGHT THE ANSWER COULD BE SO COOL  BUT WHEN YOU SEE IT YOU MIGHT THINK ME A FOOL  TO DRAG YOU ALL THIS WAY TO SEE THIS THING   IN FLIGHTS OF BIRDS A-WHIRL IT MAKES ME SING  

WE’RE SEEING KITES ON A CAROUSEL, I FIND I’M CAUGHT UP IN THEIR SPELL 

KITES ON A CAROUSEL, YOU SEE THEY’VE TRAINED THOSE BIRDS SO WELL  

LIKE HAWKERS WITH A WILD BIRD ON THEIR SUPPLE WRIST, OR ANGLERS WITH THEIR LINE TAUT WITH A THRASHING FISH  YOU’VE GOT TO GET UP WHERE IT REALLY BLOWS  YOU’VE GOT TO FOLLOW WHERE THE WILD BIRDS GO 

WE’RE WATCHING KITES ON A CAROUSEL 

YOU CAN TELL A GOOD SOUP FROM ITS SMELL 

KITES ON A CAROUSEL 

HOW HIGH THEY’LL TAKE IT YOU CAN’T TELL 

KITES ON A CAROUSEL 

WE’RE SEEING KITES PULL A CAROUSEL 

AND MAYBE EVERYTHING YOU’D EVER NEED  IS WAITING JUST RIGHT THERE WITHIN YOUR REACH  SEEMS LIKE THE OBVIOUS IS A GOOD PLACE TO HIDE  AND WHEN YOU SEE IT THEN IT CAN’T BE DENIED 

KEEP WATCHING KITES ON A CAROUSEL  AIN’T YOU HEARD AN ALARM BELL? WE’D BETTER LISTEN WELL  FOR IT’S A WARNING SENT FROM HELL 

KITES ON A CAROUSEL 

SO WE CAN BREAK OUT OF THIS SHELL 

KITES ON A CAROUSEL, I’M GOING TO TELL YOU NOW 

 I JUST BELIEVE THAT THE TIME HAS COME,  FOR US TO FIGURE IT ALL OUT AND RUN 

TAKE MY HAND NOW AND COME WITH ME, ‘CAUSE THERE’S NO WAY NOW THIS AIN’T GONNA BE 

THIS LOOKS SO SILLY, IT MUST BE A FLUKE, BUT IT GETS THE SAMEJUICE FROM A SPACE AS A NUKE  AND WHEN THEY BUILD THEIR CAROUSEL REALLY BIG  TOP OF THE TROPOSPHERE GETS SIXTY GIGS (WHAT?) IT IS SO GOOD THAT IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE  BUT EVERYBODY’S GOING TO SEE THE WAY THOSE BIRDS FLY . . .   

 . . . AND CATCH THE WILD WIND TO PROPEL 

KITES ON A CAROUSEL 

AND WE MUST MENTION STEM AS WELL 

KITES ON A CAROUSEL 

SENDS ITS BIRDS UP SOARING HIGH 

KITES ON A CAROUSEL 

TURNED BY THE FORCES OF THE SKY 

KITEGEN SUPPORTO, CAVALCARE DI CAROSELLO 

KITEGEN SUPPORTO, CAVALCARE DI CAROSELLO 

KITEGEN SUPPORTO, CAVALCARE DI CAROSELLO 

KITEGEN . . .
