TURN AROUND TOM

Turn around Tom,

Turned on the lights.

This day was turning,

To turn out alright.

Turn around Tom,

Turned up his stereo’s sound.

The neighbors complained.

He had to turn it down.

Turn around Tom,

Turned to his Land Rover.

Then drove to the store,

For an apple turnover.

Turn around Tom,

Turned towards town.

Then, when it was time to turn back,

Turn around Tom turned around.

Turn around Tom,

Turned off the lights.

Then Turn around Tom

Turned in for the night.
