That’s the Way the Wheels Turn Lyrics by Leon Rosselson

For the Good of the Nation

1981

[Chorus]
Thats the way the wheels turn
Round and round the wheels turn
Thats the way the wheels turn round
[Verse 1]
Fill in this application form in duplicate and due
Supply the information what, where, and how and who
We want your registration number, age and height and weight
So that we can keep the nation in a law and ordered state
Cause'-
[Chorus]
Thats the way the wheels turn
Round and round the wheels turn
Thats the way the wheels turn round
[Verse 2]
The forms are fumigated then there filed into files
The files are stamped and dated then therе piled into piles
The pilеs are tabulated then there sorted into rows
The rows are consecrated so the paper kingdom grows
[Chorus]
Thats the way the wheels turn
Round and round the wheels turn
Thats the way the wheels turn round
[Verse 3]
I am the man in uniform, the man without a name
I'm the man that sees the rules are kept, the rules that others frame
And if you want a question answered there may be some delay
Because it isn't my department, I'm not authorised to say
[Chorus]
Thats the way the wheels turn
Round and round the wheels turn
Thats the way the wheels turn round
[Verse 4]
I'm a servant of the people, doing what I have to do
I'm the man who turns the handles, and im turning them for you
If you want to come and see me join the queue and while you wait
Fill in this form PC30FX double eight
Cause'-
[Outro]
Thats the way the wheels turn
Round and round the wheels turn
Thats the way the wheels turn round
Yes so thats the way wheels turn
Round and round the wheels turn
Thats the way the wheels turn round
