People
('Round and 'round and around)
People make the world go 'round
('Round and 'round and around)
Teachers on strike, no more school today
They want more money but the board won't pay
People
Everybody's talkin' 'bout ecology
The air's so polluted that it's hard to breathe
People
But that's what makes the world go round
The ups and downs a carousel
Changing people's heads around
Go underground young men
People make the world go round
Old folks judge you by the clothes you wear
They'd swear you're a Hippy 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 a carousel
Changing people's heads around
Go underground young men
People make the world go round
But that's what makes the world go round
The ups and downs a carousel
Changing people's heads around
Go underground young men
People make the world go roundPeople

People make the world go round“This Time I’ll Be Sweeter” é uma das baladas mais reconhecidas de Angela Bofill, ao lado de “Time To Say Goodbye” e “I Try”.
O sucesso da canção ajudou a consolidar Bofill como uma das primeiras latino‑americanas a triunfar no gênero R&B nos Estados Unidos.
Embora o lançamento não seja mencionado explicitamente, a música fez parte do período de maior produtividade da artista, entre os anos de 1978 e 1983, quando ela já tinha vários hits dançantes e baladas.
A canção é frequentemente lembrada pelos fãs como um marco da voz contralto de Bofill, que lhe conferiu destaque em shows e gravações ao vivo.
A trajetória de Bofill, que também gravou um dueto com Johnny Mathis em 1980, demonstra como “This Time I’ll Be Sweeter” foi lançada num momento de crescente colaboração internacional no R&B.
