TURNING ON A DIME


GET UP IT’S MORNING
THERE’S STILL TIME TO CHANGE YOUR MIND
I’M TRYING TO BE OPTIMISTIC
BUT SWEET DREAMS ARE GETTING HARD TO FIND

I’M GOING RIGHT DOWN THE DRAIN
OR MAYBE I’M GOING TO SPAIN
AM I TRAPPED IN THE PAST OR AHEAD OF MY TIME
THE WHOLE WORLD’S TURNING ON A DIME

SO YOU GOT ME HANGING
FROM YOUR CORPORATE LEDGES
BY MY FINGER TIPS WITHOUT A NET BELOW
THERE WAS A TIME WHEN THE MUSIC MATTERED
BUT THOSE DAYS SEEM LIKE A LONG LONG TIME AGO

LOVES THE ONLY THING THAT EVER COULD SURVIVE
ALL THE CHANGES AND THE LIES AND THE JIVE IN THIS WORLD

HANG ON TO YOUR WISHES
SOMEBODY’S OUT THERE WAITING TO TAKE EM FROM YOU
I DON’T NEED NOBODY WITH A CROOKED HAND SHAKE
TELLING ME ABOUT ALL THEIR GOING TO DO
