The Wheel lyrics

A revolving wheel of metal chairs

Hung on chains, squealing

Four little children flying out

A blind man sings in Arabic

Hey little children don’t disappear

(I heard it was 28,000)

Lost upon a revolving wheel

(I heard it was 28,000)

Now you see them, now you don’t

Children vanish ‘hind vehicle

Now you see them, now you don’t

Faces, limbs, a bouncing skull

Hey little children don’t disappear

(I heard it was 28,000)

All that’s left after a year

(I heard it was 28,000)

A faded face, the trace of an ear

(I heard it was 28,000)

A tableau of the missing

Tied to the government building

8,000 sun-bleached photographs

Faded with the roses

Hey little children don’t disappear

(I heard it was 28,000)

Lost upon a revolving wheel

(I heard it was 28,000)

All that’s left after a year

(I heard it was 28,000)

A faded face, the trace of an ear

(I heard it was 28,000)

And watch them fade out

And watch them fade out

And watch them fade out...
