Watching The Wheels Lyrics By John Lennon

    people say i’m crazy doing what i’m doing
    well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
    when i say that i’m okay well they look at me kind of strange
    surely you’re not happy now you no longer play the game
    people say i’m lazy dreaming my life away
    well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
    when i tell ’em that i’m doing fine watching shadows on the wall
    don’t you miss the big time boy you’re no longer on the ball

    i’m just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
    i really love to watch them roll
    no longer riding on the merrygoround
    i just had to let it go

    people asking questions lost in confusion
    well i tell them there’s no problem
    only solutions
    well they shake their heads and they look at me
    as if i’ve lost my mind
    i tell them there’s no hurry
    i’m just sitting here doing time

    i’m just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
    i really love to watch them roll
    no longer riding on the merrygoround
    i just had to let it go
    i just had to let it go
    i just had to let it go
