lyrics

12. Turning Right Against the Light Again

She was laying on the deck, she was catching some rays
She was thinking about how the body decays
She was turning right against the light again.
He was cruising in his car, he was listening to tunes
His mind was an empty thought balloon
He was turning right against the light again.
He drove up on the lawn, he missed the potted palm
He stopped just short of her sarong
He was turning right against the light again.

Two wrongs don’t make a right but
Two rights could right a wrong
A changing light could change a life around
If you have the sense tonight to treat your baby right
She might turn right against the light again.

He said “baby since I’m here anyway,
invite me in I’d like to stay
I turned right against the light again”.
She said, “what the heck, come up on the deck
I was just thinking how life is a wreck
Then you turn right against the light again”.

Now two of a kind they’re sitting on the deck
Wondering how to play it up the neck
And then they turn right, and they turn right
And they turn right, and they turn right
And they turn right, and they turn right
And they turn right against the light again.
