Lyrics
You never realized
That you'd been hypnotized
And now you cross your i's
And dot your t's
The sign before you now
Reads "This is Turkey Town"
You just want to burn it down
And bring them to their knees
Chorus:
These nights are getting stranger
Cold and dark, electric blue
She's far away and free from danger
But I can't say the same for you
The servants do the best they can
To suck up to the highest man
Like divas in a mini van
With no one at the wheel
The sky has turned a sickly gray
Thirteen feet of snow in May
You just look the other way
And ask me how I feel
Chorus
Bridge:
Don't leave your lover lying in the road
Don't sit there drinking coffee, the lawn's got to be mowed
Your car won't start today - do you have to wonder why
You need this aggravation like a poke in the eye
You cast your vote today
For the ominous blue jay
Left turn's got the right of way
And no one's in control
Chorus
