Hey You! Lyrics by Scatman John

Song of Scatland - Single

0

Here it is
Here it is
Make a turn around
Make a U-turn now
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
Hey you!
You can take it from me
I was talking that talk 'til I was 43
I was walking in a web that was to thick
To shed, and it was only by degrees that I
Was brought to my knees
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
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
Like it is
Like it is
I don't wanna be a preacher
But you really need a teacher, here it is
Here it is
Here it is
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
Hey You!
You can take it from me, there's more going down
Than you and I can ever see
There's a tale being told and the water's all
Around, there's a brand new day. Get the heck out of
Your way
I never let you tell me that I wanted to hear
When you said it like it was, it never got to
My ears
My behavior underneath was completely insane
Kept playing those games with a saturated brain
I never thought I had to go as far as I did
I had to leave 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
Like it is
Like it is
I don't wanna be a preacher
But you really need a teacher, here it is
Here it is
Here it is
Make a turn around, make a u-turn now
Baby, I'm not here to sell you but you need someone
To tell you like it is
Make a U-turn, make about face, make a turn around
Make a turn around, make a u-turn now
I don't wanna be a preacher
But you really need a teacher, here it is
Here it is
Here it is
Make a turn around, make a u-turn now
Hey You!
Make a U-turn, make about face, make a turn around
Make a turn around, make a u-turn now
Make a turn around, make a u-turn now
Here it is
Here it is
Hey You!
