Turn Around Lyrics

take a step outside yourself
then you turn around
take a look at who you are
it's pretty scary

you're so silly
well it's revolting
you're not much
if you're anything

take a step outside the city
and you turn around
take a look at what you are
well it's revolting

you're really nowhere
you're so wasteful
so foolish
no big deal

(booji boy)who said don't look back
don't you believe 'em
you go for that corner seat in the restaurant
'cause they're gonna try and get behind ya
don't you let 'em do it
you know what i'm talkin' about?
you hear me talking?

it's pretty scary
it's so revolting

take a step outside the country
then you turn around
take a look at where you are
well it's amazing

take a good look
you're no big deal
you're so petty
it's a laugh

take a step outside the planet
you turn around and round
now take a look at where you are
it's pretty scary

Probably best known for Nirvana's cover of it on insecticide. Great song, but a little obvious.

This is the greatest song ever. The devo's are really clever.
