Wheels Lyrics by CAKE

Pressure Chief

2004

[Verse 1]
In a wooden boat in the shipping lanes
With the freighters towering over me
I can hear the jets flying overhead
Making lines across the darkening sky
And when the sun is going down I can take a taxi into town
And the waiter at the restaurant sets a table just for one

[Chorus]
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round spinning round
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round and round
(Okay)

[Verse 2]
So I had a plane to take me to a place so far away from you
Eventually we began to see that we could be completely free
And I could get away from you
And you could get away from me
And we could live each separately in our cities in the sun

[Chorus]
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round spinning round
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round and round
(Okay, alright)

[Verse 3]
In a seedy karaoke bar
By the banks of the mighty Bosphorus
Is a Japanese man in a business suit singing 'Smoke Gets in Your Eyes'
And the muscular cyborg German dudes dance with sexy French Canadians
While the overweight Americans wear their patriotic jumpsuits

[Chorus]
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round spinning round
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round and round
Alright
This one, right

[Bridge]
(Spinning round)
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round spinning round
(Spinning round)
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round and round

[Outro]
(Spinning round)
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round spinning round
(Spinning round)
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round and round
(I don't know)
Why you say you are not in love with me
(I don't know)
(Spinning round)
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round spinning round
(Spinning round)
Wheels keep on spinning round spinning round and round
Why you say you are not in love with me
(I don't know)
Why you say you are not in love with me
