Turn Your Back

by Sheryl Crow

Turn your back
Catch it, Catch it -Fast
Turn your back
Scratch it, Scratch it - Now
Turn your back
Cut it, Cut it - Out
Turn your back
Shut it, Shut it - Up
Falling forward on your face
Do you ever feel misplaced
You can't find it cuz you lost it
You can't see it cuz you crossed it
All these words,
They sound the same
In the end a losing game
Slowing up and speeding down
I'm out of time, I'm out of tune
Parking lots filled with cars
Sirens ringing in your ears
Get the point get out of here
Turn your back, Heart attack
You sleep in a house,
With built in stairs
You're a corporate champion,
But no one cares
Tie your shoes so you don't trip
I can't go out, I think I'm sick
The clock stopped ticking long ago
I read it in the paper don't you know
Could've been me
Could've been you
Ne ne ne Ne ne ne
Tapping tables in four ways
Obstructing habits with your gaze
Might as well slip away
Turn your back, I'll attack

Turn Your Back

by Various Artists

And when the clock strikes 12, tell me where you gonna be?
Cleaning up the mess we've made or watching your T.V.
And if you have to ask, then you don't have a clue,
There's snow in Arizona while they're bombing in Beirut
I hope some day... when i'm dead and gone,
We learned to right... everything that's wrong,
With loving hands... turn sick to strong,
Our time will tell... if life goes on...on...on, on, on
When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can't ignore....
Ya run, run, away! but there's no place to hide, mate!
When the days turn into night, you don't got no chance to fight...
'Cause you're too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate!
It just don't make no sense, there's a million mouthes to feed
We got military action over monetary need
And you can turn your back, or you can plant the seed
You can choose compassion over universal greed
I hope some day... when i'm dead and gone,
We learned to right... everything that's wrong,
With loving hands... turn sick to strong,
Our time will tell... if life goes on...on...on, on, on
When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can't ignore....
Ya run, run, away! but there's no place to hide, mate!
When the days turn into night, you don't got no chance to fight...
'Cause you're too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate!
And you can turn your back... but it won't go away
And you don't look scared... but you should be afraid
You can shut your mouth... but you still have a say
And you just don't care... for tomorrow, today
Well no way-a-ay! way-a-ay!... no way, no way, no way, now way-a-ay!
When the storm hits your front door, with a roar you can't ignore....
Ya run, run, away! but there's no place to hide, mate!
When the days turn into night, you don't got no chance to fight...
'Cause you're too late! so kiss your ass goodbye, mate!
