about

This is a song about the wonderful Wiltshire town of Swindon and it's infamously unnecessary amount of roundabouts

lyrics

Have you ever been to Swindon, a big town in the south-west
Folks we don't advise that you go there
to avoid it would be best
It's a real pain to get to
When you're there, it always rains
and when you reach a roundabout, there are just too many lanes

The roundabouts of Swindon go on and on on
They keep us second guessing, so we thought we'd write this song

When you come in from the east side, there is one that the locals call 'magic'
outsiders do not like it and refer to call it tragic
it's a contra-rotational nightmare that'll set upon your fears
there are people driving round it; they've been stuck on it for years

The roundabouts of Swindon are not few and far between
They may keep the traffic flowing, but they make a nice man mean

There are people driving round them right through the day and night
Their necks are badly damaged; they can only look to the right
If you reach this piece of magic, you'll wish you hadn't found it
They should make Swindon in to one big roundabout, so we can all go around it
