You keep me running round and round
We're standing on this shaky ground
You keep me running round and round
You take it all, you tear it down, yeah
As we fight and struggle to survive
Hangin' on just to stay alive

(chorus)
Can't you tell me why babe
We give our all for nothing
Let's find the way to go
Can't you tell me why babe
We give our all for nothing
Let's find the way to go

Shake it up

If we keep on looking down the track
We'll take the chance to get it right, yeah
As we find it harder to rely
Stay below just to satisfy, yeah
Well, you keep me running round and round
Hangin' on just to stay alive

(chorus)

Hangin' on just to stay alive
Do you want to stay around
Tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
You keep me running, you keep me running
Tell me, tell me
Gotta gotta gotta tell me why
Tell me why you keep me running...
