People Make the World Go Round Lyrics by Alicia Olatuja

Intuition: Songs from the Minds of Women

2019

[Verse 1]
Trash men didn't get my trash today
Oh, why? Because they want more pay
Buses on strike want a raise the fare
So they can help pollute the air
[Chorus]
But that's what makes the world go round
The up and down, the carousel
Changing people, they'll go round
Go underground, young man
People make the world go round
[Verse 2]
Wall Street losin' dough on every share
They're blaming it on longer hair
Big men smokin' in their easy chair
On a fat cigar without a care
[Chorus]
But that's what makes the world go round
The up and down, the carousel
Changing people, they'll go round
Go underground, young man
People make the world go round
[Bridge]
(People make the world go round)
(People make the world go round)
(People make the world go round)
(People make the world go round)
[Chorus]
But that's what makes the world go round
The up and down, the carousel
Changing people, they'll go round
Go underground, young man
People make the world go round
[Outro]
People make the world go round
(People make the world go round)
Go round
(People make the world go round)
(People make the world go round)
(People make the world go round)
