Editorial Notes:

 The title track is about a boy who has a rat as a friend and it was made for a movie about rats. It topped the pop chart, but peaked only at number five on the R&B chart. The strange thing is that they havn't printed how long the songs are. Here's how long they are: "Ben" - 2:44 "Greatest Show on Earth" - 2:48 "People Make the World Go 'round" - 3:15 "We've Got a Good Thing Going" - 2:59 "Everybody's Somebody's Fool" - 2:59 "My Girl" - 3:08 "What Goes Around Comes Around" - 3:33 "In Our Small Way" - 3:39 "Shoo-Be-Doo-Be-Doo-Da-Day" - 3:21 "You Can Cry on My Shoulder" - 2:39 For more Michael stuff check out the Jackson 5.

Old folks judge you by the clothes you wear They swear you're a hippi if you have long hair Young politicians fight for poverty While people still cry for equality But that's what makes the world go round the ups and downs - the carousel - Michael Jackson, "People Make The World Go Round" Go to the Funky Discography or to the Main Page.
