You are always thinking of her

You're in love and you don't know what to say
**** *** ****
But I saw her at the fair she feels the same way
She was married by the merry-go-round

merry-go-round
How merrily we go round
How merrily we go round
The merry-go-round
It was the first one of the day
It was the last one of the night
Oh hold me tight, hold me tight
They said you were a wrong 'un
But I can see in your eyes
How you are gentle and wise
And you had the good stuff
Oh there's a parade of girls outside
That boy's so shy
Why'd you punch out his lights?
It was the first one of the day
It was the last one of the night
Oh Mop it up it'll be alright
Mop it up she'll be alright
there's a parade of girls outside
Come on and feel
The air outside
Said what I like most about you Peter (I'm not sure this verse is correct)
is your girlfriend and your shoes
And it's nearly half past five, Can we swap again
Half past five, can we swap again
Oh there's a parade of girls outside
That boy's so shy
Why'd you punch out his lights?
You should get some sun on your face
You've been sitting like a lord in the bath for days
It's getting so I don't even know you
We get away with doing the little that we can
We mustn't take it too far my friend
The Albion needs every man, woman and child she can get her hands on...
