Lyrics The Levellers

The Levellers

Wheels

He came off second best when he first came round here

In a town that's built on money, built on fear

Just don't fake life

He's been told a thousand times

You see the wheels that we turn in keep dragging us down

He was amazed to se the fallen here

Tried so very hard to fight the fear

Then when he saw the end and it weren't very far

It slipped from his grasp and he stumbled there in the dark

Just don't fake life

He's been told a thousand times

You see the wheels that we turn in keep dragging us down

He took a troubled heart and then he gave it out

Took a violent change of circumstance to shout

There can be nobody better to turn things around

Yes there can be nobody better to turn things around

Just don't fake life

He's been told a thousand times

You see the wheels that we turn in keep dragging us down
