Chew's U-Turn

Sanoitukset

[Verse 1] Chew rolled past the corner store With a paper cup and a map on the floor The sign said keep on going straight But he figured one quick turn could save him eight [Pre-Chorus] A horn cut through the afternoon Tires cried out beneath the June [Chorus] Chew made an illegal U-turn Right where the yellow lines were bright Now two bent fenders tell the story And nobody's getting home on time Chew, you can't undo that turn So take a breath and wait your turn [Verse 2] A sedan came over the rise He saw the flash too late to improvise Metal folded, glass came down Folks from the shops came running out [Pre-Chorus] He checked the driver, called for help Then stood there shaking with himself [Chorus] Chew made an illegal U-turn Right where the yellow lines were bright Now two bent fenders tell the story And nobody's getting home on time Chew, you can't undo that turn So take a breath and wait your turn [Bridge] The other driver walked away A sore arm, a rattled day They traded names beside the curb While sirens answered every word [Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] Chew made an illegal U-turn One careless choice, a costly night Now he reads the road before him And lets the arrows guide him right Chew, you can't undo that turn But you can learn before the next one comes [Outro] Straight ahead, take the longer way Chew learned that lesson on a Tuesday
