Watching the Wheels

Deutsches Hygiene-Museum, Dresden

 

"The creation of the Deutsches Hygiene-Museum (1912) harks back to the efforts of the Dresden industrialist Karl August Lingner (1861-1916), the manufacturer of the mouthwash Odol. In 1911 Lingner had been among the protagonists of the First International Hygiene Exhibition, for which more than five million visitors had come to Dresden. This exhibition combined state-of-the-art technologies and unprecedented lifelike displays and models to impart knowledge about human anatomy and address issues of proactive health care and diet."

I'm just sittin' here

Watchin' the wheels go round and round

I really love to watch them roll

No longer ridin' on the merry-go-round

I just had to let it go
