以下是《5 merry go round》的詞曲：
曲：Colin MacIntyre/Mike Nolan
詞：Michaela Clayton
Chorus:
It's a funny feeling in the air
No matter where you go they just don't care
Spinning round and round, up and down
Is this a ride we call life?
Verse 1:
Out on the edge, trying to catch my breath
Living for now, fearing I'll miss my release
When it all gets too heavy, I float off the ground
With a smile on my face, I'm laughing at the world
Chorus:
It's a funny feeling in the air
No matter where you go they just don't care
Spinning round and round, up and down
Is this a ride we call life?
Bridge:
You can't hold on forever
Sooner or later you'll fall off the merry-go-round
So why not dance with all your might?
Let the rhythm take you where you're meant to be
Chorus:
It's a funny feeling in the air
No matter where you go they just don't care
Spinning round and round, up and down
Is this a ride we call life?
Outro:
The ride may be over, the music has stopped
But memories will keep on spinning 'round your head
So why not smile? You've been on the merry-go-round
And that's a feeling that you'll never forget.
