[00:00.00]Dreidel - Don McLean
[00:13.89]I feel like a spinning top for a dreidel
[00:17.10]The spinning don't stop when you leave the cradle
[00:20.04]You just slow down
[00:23.60]Round and around this world you go
[00:26.89]Spinning through lives of the people you know
[00:30.06]We all slow down
[00:33.54]How you gonna keep on turning from day to day
[00:39.96]How you gonna keep from turning your life away
[00:46.80]No days you can borrow
[00:49.96]No time you can buy
[00:53.17]No trust in tomorrow
[00:55.37]It's a lie
[01:02.07]Oh I feel like a spinning top for a dreidel
[01:05.05]The spinning don't stop when you leave the cradle
[01:08.45]You just slow down
[01:11.77]Round and around this world you go
[01:14.85]Spinning through lives of the people you know
[01:17.78]We all slow down
[01:21.54]How you gonna keep on turning from day to day
[01:27.82]How you gonna keep from turning your life away
[01:33.74]And I feel like I'm a-dipping and a-diving
[01:38.39]My sky shoes are spiked with lead heels
[01:43.01]I'm lost in this star car I'm a-driving
[01:47.63]But my air sole keeps pushing big wheels
[01:52.38]My world is a constant confusion
[01:56.85]My mind is prepared to attack
[02:01.46]My past a persuasive illusion
[02:06.13]I'm watching the future it's black
[02:09.77]What do you know
[02:11.68]You know just what you perceive
[02:13.40]What can you show
[02:15.32]Nothing of what you believe
[02:17.03]And as you grow
[02:18.98]Each thread of life that you lead
[02:20.82]Will spin around your deeds
[02:23.47]And dictate your needs
[02:25.81]As you sell your soul
[02:27.92]And you sow your seeds
[02:30.21]And you wound yourself
[02:32.32]And your loved one bleeds
[02:34.37]And your habit's grow
[02:36.54]And your conscious feeds
[02:38.52]On all that you thought you should be
[02:42.02]I never thought this could happen to me-e-e-e-e
[02:47.87]I feel like a spinning top for a dreidel
[02:51.23]The spinning don't stop when you leave the cradle
[02:54.57]You just slow down
[02:58.09]Round and around this world you go
[03:00.70]Spinning through lives of the people you know
[03:04.06]We all slow down
[03:07.83]How you gonna keep on turning from day to day
[03:14.27]How you gonna keep from turning your life away
[03:20.62]I feel like a spinning top for a dreidel
[03:23.87]The spinning don't stop when you leave the cradle
[03:27.11]You just slow down
[03:30.47]You just slow down
[03:33.74]You just slow down
