[Intro]

[Verse 1]
Birds are singing in the trees
As we rise up in a beautiful morning
But I can't hear that beautiful sound
'Cause I'm permanently yawning

What about the time of the fancy dress?
When you came dressed as your mum (You are a girl)
And there I was splendid in my penguin suit
So scared to show my bill

[Chorus 1]
You must've been listening to your Carousel
Your Carousel, mm-hmm
That Carousel

[Verse 2]
Remember the time when I turned the house
Into a rocket ship?
And you refused to come to Mars, you said it's too far
And you had to be back by six to watch your Carousel

[Chorus 2]
Mmm, Carousel
Mmm, Carousel
Saturn's much too far
You had to watch Carousel
[Verse 3]
When we first met, I asked you for your hand
I didn't really mean that hand
I meant join hands, bake phallic cake (Bake phallic cake?)
Carry 'round sticky tape and love those devil dogs
Be an Indian elephant (Be an Indian elephant)
Bait straight people

[Bridge]
But you must have missed my wink, you must have missed my wink
(I love you but, uh, you're boring, you know?)
You must have missed my wink, my wink, must have missed my wink
(I really do love you, but you're so particularly boring)

[Outro]
Maybe you were too busy listening to Carousel, Carousel, listening to Carousel
Ah
Listening Carousel, watching Carousel
Watching

Watching Carousel, listening Carousel
Living Carousel
Watching Carousel, listening Carousel
Living Carousel

You were watching Carousel, you were listening Carousel
You were living Carousel
You were watching Carousel, you were living Carousel
You were watching Carousel
You were watching Carousel, you were watching Carousel
You were watching Carousel
