All the Fun of the Fair Lyrics by Anthony Stewart Head

Music for Elevators

2002

I wrote this song when I was younger
Blind to the lessons I could learn
I'm finding it hard to feel good
'Cuz each time I'm up there, I know I'm gonna fall
Never really understood why the coming down
Seems to last forever
And this constant change of feelings is making me reel
It's making me...
Wanna get off, I want it to stop
[These are our lessons, learn them well]
You can't get off; I want to check out
[These are the lessons we live to learn]
You can't get off, no you can't stop it
Well, I wrote this song when I was young and
Now I now I know there's so much I have left to learn
Adversity only makes us stronger, when we understand
That there's a purpose
(spoken)
Everything that you've done in your life
Every experience, every thought, every moment
Has led to this, has led to now
Everything that happens is for a reason
Every success, every defeat, everything
Nothing is an accident
All the fun of the fair
There's nothing very merry about going round and round
Heart's in your mouth, hands in the air
Head is spinning as you tumble to the ground
And this constant change of feelings is making me reel
This constant change of feelings - is making me...
Wanna get off, I want it to stop
[These are the lessons, learn them well]
You can't get off
I wanna get off; I want to check out
[These are the lessons we live to learn]
You can't get off, no you can't stop it
Wanna get off, I want it to stop
[These are our lessons]
You can't get off
I wanna get off; I want to check out, good and bad, we
[Live to learn]
You can't get off, no you can't stop it
