lyrics

I had every good intention
to stay home and polish my stamp collection
when someone called
and asked me to come to a show

First I said “well…” and then “yes”
Some sort of a catastrophic social function
is what I need
Then I took my keys and left

I have to turn my back on you
I have to turn my back on you
I have to turn my back on you
I have to turn my back on you

And then I'm talking with her
I’m tuning up like a rusty guitar string
Out in the rain
my trail back home is getting washed away

I have to walk by the fire
and spin my heart and brain back to their own places
I open the door
and I let the tornado in

I have to turn my back on you
I have to turn my back on you
I have to turn my back on you
I have to turn my back on you
