Oh dear, you tell me what to say
You tell me what to say and then you run away
Oh dear, you tell me what to do
You tell me what to do and then I do it to
Oh dear, you tell me when to talk
You tell me when to talk and then you shut me up
Oh dear, you show me how to move
You show me how to move and then you say, “Don’t move.”
You show me how to move and then you say, “Don’t move.”
Everybody turn around while I turn this on
Everybody turn around while I get turned on
Everybody, hey (x4)
There are wheels inside each and every one of us
They keep turning around, they keep turning around
Oh dear, you tell me where to go
You tell me where to go and then you find me gone
Oh dear, you show me how to think
You show me how to think and then you ask me how I know
Everybody, hey (x4)
There are wheels inside each and every one of us
They keep turning around, and they keep turning around
