Carousel Ride

I think I had I more luck at my other job
 The way to the top
 Is grab tricks at the bottom
 Soldiers on the mat are a pain in the side
 Take a cheap spin and say it's all right
 Starting little fires is my middle name
 I smoke what I got when I can't relate
 I got to fix my eyes on the future two thousands
 Spins
 Get myself fat, get myself thin
 Trotting through life with occasional wins
 Thought it'd be cool to calm my wits
 Oops
 On this ride I'm the Captain
 All my friends call me Shackleton
 With one eye, I ride high
 Got magic wands, unicorns and action
 Round and round and round I go
 Hoping for a miracle
 I got no place to run and hide
 I guess I'll take a spin on the carousel ride
 Just the way the stars align
 Not a reason to get blind
 So take another spin on the carousel ride
 I think I was a bird in another life
 Maybe that's why I'm prone to flight
 And I do like heights
 When all the strongest winds are blowing my way
 Then the reaper comes to take my breath away
 Yeah I go
 And I dance in the fire
 And then I do it again
