I'd like to tell you about a very old dance
Ring-a-ring o'roses, renaissance trance
And though it's old the steps come easy to you
You just do, do, do what you have to do

Yeah, yeah come rolling
Yeah, yeah, ina passacaglia

You sense a woman, say Miss mary Go-Round
Atishoo, atishoo, we all fall down
The two of you will find your own way
Passacaglia goes down, down, down all the days

Let's go up to the mountain top
Let's go swimming in your pond again
We move in circles 'round and 'round, lift our bodies
off the ground
Let's seek that volcano dear
Your water fountain should be near
Daddy's with the secret police
That might be why I'm hard to please
