ROUND AND ROUND
By Mighty Shadow
Imme yey-yey, doom doom dam
The world keeps spinning 'round and 'round and
'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
Every time it comes around, the young is not so young
And 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
The young is getting old and a next generation takes control.
And boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
On the same old pavements, oh yeah, new replacements
In the same old places, brand new faces, oh yeah
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Grand Daddy was a pretty little boy playing with his pretty little toy
Then he was a handsome man holding on to Grandmama hand
Then he was a good Daddy caring for his family
Then he was a total mess suffering from arthritis.
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
On the same old pavements, oh yeah, new replacements
In the same old places, yeah, yeah, yeah, brand new faces
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
And the world keeps spinning 'round and 'round and
Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
Every time it comes around, the young is not so young
And 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
The young is getting old and a next generation takes control.
And boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
And Grandmama days was just the same, Grandmama was a pretty little dame
Grandmama hair was black like night, Grandmama hair is white, white, white
Grandmama used to wear red ribbons, playing games and having fun
Father Time say, "Move over!" A next generation take over.
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
On the same old pavements, new replacements, oh yeah
Same old places, brand new faces
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
And the world keeps spinning 'round and 'round and
'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
Every time it comes around, the young is not so young
And 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
The young is getting old and a next generation takes control.
And boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
And the young generation don't like kitchen, they love pizza and fried chicken
Brand name jeans, brand name sneakers, dark nights, wearing peepers
Making love in shady places, smiling with their sexy faces
And before they watch the clock, a next generation on the block.
Where boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
On the same old pavements, oh yeah, new replacements,
In the same old places, brand new faces, oh yeah yeah
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
And the world keeps spinning 'round and 'round and
Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
Every time it comes around, the young is not so young
And 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round and
The young is getting old and a next generation takes control.
And boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
On the same old pavements, new replacements, oh yeah,
In the same old places, just brand new faces
Boys and girls come out to do their thing [Boys and girls come out to do their thing]
Boys and girls come out to do their thing....

A Note From The Gull
Thank you, Shadow. I am enchanted! You really think about life and you share what you have learned from your explorations in your music. Because you swim in deep waters, you are outside of time. You will never be replaced because you channel the eternal, that which is enduring and that which resonates with us all. I know that growing old is something that you have been thinking about and you have expressed some of your thoughts in songs like "Aging System" and "Scratch Mih Back." To me, you are forever young and forever vital, and your music is the expression of this fact.
"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.
Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.
Mweh ka allay!
Guanaguanare
