You Turn The Screws lyrics
Songwriters: Mccrea, John;

You turn the screws
You tear down the bridge
Flimsy as it is, it s business like
You shake my hand
You break up the band
Flimsy as it is, it s open-mic punk rock
Red, white and blue

You twist the knife then go home to kiss your wife
A bigger better slice is what you d like
You kick the sand, you get the upper hand
You sell it to Japan, it s natural punk rock
Red, white and blue

You turn the screws
It s what you choose to do
You think that I must turn them too
You think that I must be so satisfied
I stay inside, I wonder why

And the cement mixer gets it all ready
One good turn at a time
They re pouring it slowly and steady
You re showing me where I can sign
What I can expect to find
But how can you say you ll be happy
When you turn the screws

You turn the screws
It s what you choose to do
You turn the screws
It s what you choose to do
You think that I must turn them, too

You turn the screws
It s what you choose to do
You turn the screws
It s what you choose to do
Flimsy as it is, it s open-mic punk rock
Red, white and blue
You turn the screws
