Here is my town a little place
Just a turn that leaves no trace
This town I know
Through and through
Driving round is easy to do
Left and right and up and down
Travel roads all over town
Lives go round and round
You know it’s true, yeah I do too
Yesterday went west of town
Forever gone can’t be found
Tomorrow came passing by
Moved up street to stay a while
All the days come spinning back
Nothings changed round town’s old traps
Left and right and up and down
Travel roads all over town
Lives go round and round
You know it’s true, yeah I do too
One day we’ll all be gone
Until that day yeah our town is young
Fire all your engines on
Turn the wheel yeah our job is done
Lives go round and round
You know it’s true, yeah I do too
One day we’ll all be gone
Until that day travel roads all over town
Background
Left And Right is about urban sprawl. It’s based on the growth of Newcastle, NSW Australia.
Every day we turn left and right, engines fire, lives go round and around, but where are we going as a species?
Despite all the activity and sprawl we just consume more and more.
