Another night you cannot sleep
The silly strategies and schemes keep you awake
And in your haste you lost the sheep
And now there's nothing left to count but your mistakes

A clever trick of your invention
Such a good thing, you're prepared
So circle gets a square

They frame your name in the marquis
Now you're what everyone's discussing
They're rushing, they're finally up where they care to be

For there's an X in every corner
And the board is nearly full

Now you're the center of attention
And you're walking on the air
Such a delicate affair
Now you know it

A clever trick of your invention
Such a good thing, you're prepared
So circle gets a square

Circle gets a square
So circle gets a square
Circle gets a
