Traffic Light
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Don't you be a traffic light?
Don't you be a traffic light?
With all things said
You turn to red
Don't you be a traffic light?
And don't you be a round-a-bout?
No, not another round-a-bout
We've come so far
Yet back to the start
Don't you be a round-a-bout?
Oh, now, baby,
Don't miss, read the signs
If you turn the key then
Things will turn out fine
Let's not have a break down
No, not another breakdown
You're on your own
A long way from home
Let's not have a breakdown
Don't miss, read the signs
If you had just turned the key then
Things will turn out fine
You're pushing me, you're breaking
Over taking me, you're racing
First placing me, not chasing me back home
We've come so far
Yet back to the start
Don't you be a traffic light?
With all things said
You turn to red
Don't you be a traffic light?
You're pushing me, you're breaking
Over taking me, you're racing
First placing me, not chasing me back home
Don't let me down
