(′Round And 'Round And Around...)
People Make The World Go ′Round
('Round And 'Round And Around...)

Rrefrain
But That's What Makes The World Go Round
The Ups And Downs A Carousel
Changing People′s Heads Around
Go Underground Young Men...
People Make The World Go Round...
Old Folks Judge You By The Clothes You Wear
They'd Swear You're A Hippy If You Have Long Hair
Young Politicians Fight For Poverty
While People Still Cry For Equality
But That′s What Makes The World Go Round
The Ups And Downs A Carousel
Changing People′s Heads Around
Go Underground Young Men...
People Make The World Go Round...
(Instrumental)
But That's What Makes The World Go Round
The Ups And Downs A Carousel
Changing People′s Heads Around
Go Underground Young Men...
People Make The World Go Round...
Ramon Morris's song People Make the World Go Around is an ode to the diversity and constant flux of the world we live in. The first verse touches on the frustration of teachers on strike, emphasizing the importance of education but also the struggle for fair pay. The second verse addresses the ecological issues the world faces, with polluted air affecting our ability to breathe. Throughout the song, Morris highlights how people from all walks of life and all age groups bring about change and ultimately make the world go around. The lyrics highlight the ups and downs in life, but also the way that challenging and changing each other's thoughts and behaviors keeps the world moving forward.
The refrain "that's what makes the world go round" brings a sense of acceptance and acknowledgement that these struggles are what ultimately drive change and progress. The line "go underground young men" may refer to seeking change and progress in unconventional ways, not just through mainstream modes of discourse or that younger generations may have to pave a new way forward.
Overall, Ramon Morris's song is a reminder that we all have a role to play in shaping the world around us and that through coming together and being open to change, we can make positive changes in the world.
