Pulled off the road, millions move on
 To catch my breath for a second
 Was a second too long
 I guess where I am is where I belong
 Beneath the big wheel

 It was a day to day and I lived and learned
 Learnt how to steal or wait my turn
 Because nothing's fair and nothing's fairly earned
 When you're on the big wheel

 I'm living with nothing beneath me
 Straining my neck so I can see
 This thing that spins so selfishly
 I'm watching the big wheel

 Well who can you trust and who can you blame?
 They say "two thousand years it's always been the same
 The same names running the same games"
 On the big wheel

 I'm living with nothing beneath me
 Straining my neck so I can see
 This thing that spins so selfishly
 I'm watching the big wheel

 It's a rollercoaster with fairground lights
 There's a wheel on my wagon rolling into the night
 And in my head there's this beautiful sight
 They're building a different wheel
