[Verse 1]
Pedal to floor, back in the seat
Purpose and will versus modern machine
Passing the slow, defeating the weak
All with the tar on the street, and the weight of my feet, the sweat on my face
Wanting first place more than you can understand
I'm going around in circles again

[Chorus 1]
Going around in circles again
Going around in circles

[Verse 2]
Photo finish race
Rear-viewed stare chase
Satisfaction only when I finish at the end
If I follow all the rules, promise that I'll win
Driven so confused that
Going around in circles again

[Chorus 2]
Going around in circles again
Going around in circles again
Ooh, hoo
Going around in circles again
I, I, I'm going around in circles
[Bridge]
Yeah
Holding on by a thread
Cut me loose so I can contend
Hoping for something more than second place, first place or more
First place or more
First place or more
Where will I be when I get to the end? Yeah
Doesn't matter what I place I began
Three-hundred-sixty-one degrees, and then
I, I'm going around in circles again
Yeah

[Outro]
Going around in circles again, yeah
Going around in circles again
Going around in circles again
Going around in circles again
Going around in circles again
Going around in circles again
Going around in circles again
Going around in circles again
