Lyrics
The Wheel:
Life is the name of the game,
But when the game is over
Will they remember your name?
They read it in the paper,
They say what a shame.
Then it?s wrapped around your chips
Before it?s tossed away.
C :-
Oh it?s brightly coloured,
It?s got chills and thrills.
We keep on turning
Spinning round life?s wheel.
Lots of ups and downs,
Countless peaks and troughs.
But once it stops
We have to get off.
What is the meaning of life?
It?s more than just a number,
Or that film from Monty Pyth .
I?m looking all around me,
I think what have we done?
People murdered and maimed
In the name of Your Son.
C :-
Oh it?s brightly coloured,
It?s got chills and thrills.
We keep on turning
Spinning round life?s wheel.
Lots of ups and downs,
Countless peaks and troughs.
But once it stops
We have to get off.
Bridge :-
Shut myself off.
It can?t be real.
Keep my door locked
And forget how to feel.
No one has lost
And no one has won.
So many problems
And no solutions.
Something must change
For good to start.
Something must change,
We need a new heart.
Doubt clouds my every thought,
But when the clouds pass over ,
I find blood upon my door.
You say we?re Your chosen,
Sometimes it?s hard to see.
That Your love?s without condition,
There?s still a chance for me.
C :-
Oh it?s brightly coloured,
It?s got chills and thrills.
We keep on turning
Spinning round life?s wheel.
Lots of ups and downs,
Countless peaks and troughs.
But once it stops
We have to get off.
Keep on spinning round the wheel
The wheel of life.
Don?t make a move to the left or the right.
Just keep heading forward towards the light.
Let?s hope the future?s bright.
