Turn Your Back

And when the clock strikes 12, tell me where you gonna be?

Cleaning up the mess we've made or watching your TV

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

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

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!
