Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Stereotype
Monotype
Blood type
Are you my type?
Minimalism
Abstract expressionism
Postmodernism
Is it?
[Verse 2]
We are the children of concrete and steel
This is the place where the truth is concealed
This is the time when the lie is revealed
Everything is possible, but nothing is real
[Verse 3]
Corporate religion
Televangehypnotism
Suffer till you die
For the sweet bye and bye
Science and technology
The new mythology, yeah
Look deep inside
Empty, yeah
[Verse 4]
We are the children of concrete and steel
This is the place where the truth is concealed
This is the time when the lie is revealed
Everything is possible, but nothing is real
[Verse 5]
Oh
Uh
Everything that goes around comes around
[Verse 6]
Well, I'm hypothetical
Theoretical
Circumstantial evidence
Irrelevance
Well, don't think twice
Just roll the dice
Pay the price
Snake eyes
[Verse 7]
We are the children of concrete and steel
This is the place where the truth is concealed
This is the time when the lie is revealed
Everything is possible, but nothing is real
[Verse 8]
We are the children of concrete and steel
This is the place where your fate has been sealed
This is the time when your life is revealed
Everything is possible, but nothing is, nothing is
Nothing is, nothing is, nothing is
Nothing is real
Nothing is real
[Verse 9]
Everything that goes around comes around
Everything that goes around comes around
[Verse 10]
Everything goes around
(Everything that goes around comes around)
Everything goes around
(Everything that goes around comes around)
Everything that goes around
(Everything that goes around comes around)
Comes around, comes around
Everything that goes around, yeah
(Everything that goes around comes around)
Goes around, yeah, goes around, yeah
[Verse 11]
Everything that goes around
(Everything that goes around comes around)
Comes around, comes around
Everything that goes around
Comes around and goes around
Everything that goes around
(Everything that goes around comes around)
It comes around, it comes around
[Verse 12]
Well, everything that goes around
(Everything that goes around comes around)
Comes around, comes around
Everything that goes around
(Everything that goes around comes around)
Comes around, comes around
[Verse 13]
Everything that goes around, it comes around, it comes around
Everything that goes around, it comes around, it comes around
Everything that goes around, it comes around, it comes around
Everything that goes around, it comes around, it comes around
Everything that goes around, it comes around, it comes around
Everything that goes around, it comes around, it comes around
Everything that goes around, it comes around, it comes around
Everything that goes around, it comes around, it comes around
Hey, hey, everything goes around
Everything that goes around
It comes around
Everything that goes around
It comes around
