Carousel (Who’s Gonna Hold You Down)

[Verse 1]
A dozen race horses
Frozen in poses
All grounded by posts
Bound to lose by a nose
With nowhere to go
Nowhere to go

[Verse 2]
The levers are trimmed
And the circles begin
Ain't it strange to see a zebra
Chasing the lion?
Whirling aglow
Twirling aglow

[Chorus]
But if you ride with no one
No one by your side
Who’s gonna hold you down?
Who's gonna hold you now?
Who's gonna hold you down?

[Verse 3]
As the evening draws closer
The sunlight’s exposer
Cannot keep me back
Heat these feathers and wax
Escaping unknown
Breaking the domе

[Chorus]
Who's gonna hold you down?
Who's gonna hold you now?
Who's gonna hold you down?
