Fogging the view, cupping face to the window
Bb Eb Cm F
In darkness you make out a spiralling shape

Putting all reason aside you exchange

What you got for a thing that’s hypnotic and strange

Bb Eb Cm F

But everyone wants to see that groovy thing
Bb Eb Cm F
(Everyone wants to see that thing)

And they heard it from the spiral in their eyes
Verse:
This could lead to excellence
Or serious injury
Only one way to know
Go, go, go
Go ahead, wreck your life
That might be good
Who can say what’s wrong or right?
Nobody can
Verse part 2:
Put out your hands and you fall through the window
And clawing at nothing you drop through the void
Your terrified screams are inaudible drowned
In the spiral ahead and consumed in the shape
Chorus:
The spiralling shape will make you go insane
(Everyone wants to see that groovy thing)
But everyone wants to see that groovy thing
(Everyone wants to see that thing)
Chorus Part 2:
And now that you’ve tried it, you’re back to report
That the spiralling shape was a fraud and a fake
You didn’t enjoy it, you never believed it
There won’t be a refund, you’ll never go back
Chorus:
The spiralling shape will make you go insane
(Everyone wants to see that groovy thing)
But everyone wants to see that groovy thing
(Everyone wants to see that thing)
Post Chorus:
And nobody knows what it’s really like
But everyone says it’s great
And they heard it from the spiral in their eyes
Verse Part 2:
Fogging the view, cupping face to the window
In darkness you make out a spiralling shape
Putting all reason aside you exchang
What you got for a thing that’s hypnotic and strange
Chorus:
The spiralling shape will make you go insane
(Everyone wants to see that groovy thing)
But everyone wants to see that groovy thing
(Everyone wants to see that thing)
Fill:
Bb Eb Cm F
Don’t spend the rest of your life wondering
(Everyone wants to see that thing)
Fill:
Bb Eb Cm F
Don’t spend the rest of your life wondering
(Everyone wants to see that groovy thing)
Don’t spend the rest of your life wondering
(Everyone wants to see that thing)
