Every Time She Turns Round It's Her Birthday Lyrics

Spinning round you weigh me down
Gravel hands of green and brown (x4)

In your cells both red and white
On the sun that gives us light
In your cells both white and red
From the mouth our kids get fed

In your cells both red and white (spinning round you weigh me down)
On the sun that gives us light (gravel hands of green and brown)
In your cells both white and red
From the mouth our kids get fed

In your cells both red and white
On the sun that gives us light (way down on the ground)
In your cells both white and red (big cells that you can hear)
From the mouth...
(Almost makes us dissapear)

appreciate the contribution CBA.

The tune jams, about 3:15 into it, it kicks out this awesome beat that drives a fury. the relentless beat, the driving horn, the surging organ chords, ..and those last seconds? wonderful!

I'm not exactly sure what the lyrics are about, but I'm pretty sure the song is about the Earth. The title is a restatement of the fact that one rotation of the Earth occurs in a year. Also the line spinning round you weigh me down is likely a reference to gravity.
