Hey You! (U-Turn)

Here it is.

Here it is.

Make a turn around,

Make a U-turn now.

(Scatting by Scatman John)

Hey you!

If anybody's home, I'm trying to get through

with a story for you.

There's a monster out there and it really

doesn't care what you say what you do

if you're young or you're grey.

Hey you!

You can take it from me.

I was talking that talk 'til I was 43.

I was walking in a web that was to thick

to shed, and it was only by degrees that I

was brought to my knees.

Justification was my mode of operation,

looking good number one on my list.

Trapped in a circle of a merry-go-round,

I couldn't get up getting down.

The things that I was doing was all I ever known,

I didn't know that I was driven by delusion to the

bone.

You want to hear the greatest story ever told?

There ain't a greater feeling than the healing

of your soul.

Baby, I'm not here to sell you but you need someone

to tell you like it is.

Like it is.

Like it is.

I don't wanna be a preacher

But you really need a teacher, here it is.

Here it is.

Here it is.

Hey You!

Don't beat yourself up, be gentle with yourself

'cause there ain't nobody else, and it isn't

your fault and I know it seems bleak,

and you're only in this u-turn 'til you meet defeat.

Hey You!

You can take it from me, there's more going down

than you and I can ever see.

There's a tale being told and the water's all

around, there's a brand new day. Get the heck out of

your way.

I never let you tell me that I wanted to hear,

When you said it like it was, it never got to

my ears.

My behavior underneath was completely insane.

Kept playing those games with a saturated brain.

I never thought I had to go as far as I did,

I had to leave home and abandon a kid.

You want to hear the greatest story ever told?

There ain't a greater feeling than the healing

of your soul.

Baby, I'm not here to sell you but you need someone

to tell you like it is.

Like it is.

Like it is.

I don't wanna be a preacher

But you really need a teacher, here it is.

Here it is.

Here it is.

Make a turn around, make a u-turn now.

Baby, I'm not here to sell you but you need someone

to tell you like it is.

Make a U-turn, make about face, make a turn around,

make a turn around, make a u-turn now.

I don't wanna be a preacher

But you really need a teacher, here it is.

Here it is.

Here it is.

Make a turn around, make a u-turn now.
