Lyrics

[Verse 1]
People make the world go round, yeah
[Verse 2]
People
Make the world go round
[Verse 3]
Trash men didn't get my trash today
Oh, why, because they want more pay
Buses on strike and want a raise in fare
So they can help pollute the air
[Verse 4]
But they're what makes the world go round
The ups and downs, our carousel
Changing people's heads around
Go underground, young men
People make the world go round
[Verse 5]
People make the world go round
[Verse 6]
Wall Street losin' dough on every share
They're blaming it on longer hair
Big men smokin' in their easy chair
On a fat cigar without a care
Care
[Verse 7]
But they're what makes the world go round
The ups and downs, our carousel
Changing people's heads around
Go underground, young men
People make the world go round
[Verse 8]
People make the world go round
Yeah
[Verse 9]
But they're what makes the world go round
The ups and downs, our carousel
Changing people's heads around
Go underground, young men
People make the world go round
[Verse 10]
Make the world go round
Ups and downs, side to side
Yeah, yeah-yeah
(People make the world go round)
Make 'em, make 'em, make 'em
Make 'em-make 'em-make the world go round
[Verse 11]
(People make the world go round, people make the world go round)
People make the world go round
(People make the world go round, people make the world go round)
(People make the world go round, people make the world go round)
(People make the world go round, people make the world go round)
(People make the world go round, people make the world go round)
[Verse 12]
(People make the world go round, people make the world go round)
(People make the world go round, people make the world go round)
(People make the world go round, people make the world go round)
(People make the world go round, people make the world go round)
(People make the world go round)
[Verse 13]
People make the world go round
Yeah, yeah
