U-Turn

(album: Everybody Jam! - 1996)

Here it is

Make a U-turn baby

Make a turn around,
Make a U-turn now

Here it is

Make a turn around,
Make a U-turn now
U-turn now
U-turn now
U-turn now
U-turn now

Here it is

[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

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
G-g-get up from getting down
G-g-get up from getting down
G-g-get up from getting down
G-g-get up from 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

I don't wanna be a preacher
But you really need a teacher, here it is

Make a U-turn baby

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

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

I don't wanna be a preacher
But you really need a teacher, here it is

Make a U-turn baby

[Scatting by Scatman John]

Here it is

Here it is

Baby, I'm not here to sell you but you need someone to tell you like it is

I don't wanna be a preacher
But you really need a teacher, here it is

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