Bruce Hornsby - Pete And Manny LYRICS

Pete took up Latin dancing

Sherry loved his style

We loved to laugh as they glided past

But he kicked the blues for a while



Mannby wanted to be artsy

Always dressed in black

Our spirits rose as he struck the pose

But he found peace in the wonderful pose



Hey oh hey now, there you go

Round and round and round it goes

Where it stops no-one knows

Hey oh there you go

Round and round and round it goes

First to laugh is the last to know



Jimmy went and joined the gym

His posing was a sight

We thought he looked like a clown in tights

But we were the ones home alone at night



Hey oh hey now, there you go

Round and round and round it goes

Where it stops no-one knows

Hey oh there you go

Round and round and round it goes

First to laugh is the last to know



Johnson loved to feign indifference

A nihilist to the brim

We'd shout as he would spout

That nothing ever fazes him



Hey oh hey now, there you go

Round and round and round it goes

Where it stops no-one knows

Hey oh there you go

Round and round and round it goes

First to laugh is the last to know
