Lyric Turn It Into Hate
The latest I looked at this was the live version on
"The Last Rock and Roll Tour" - Graham parker and The Figgs.
This version works fairly well for me now.
Intro: B / E / B / E (twice)
First B 799677 First E 779997 Second B 224442 Second E 022100
B E B E B E B E
The jug heads hit the city from every country round the globe
B E B E B E B E
The ships pulled in the drinks were free the ticker tape came out in rolls
B E B E B E B E
I was sitting in a bar watching this on TV
B E B E B E B E
To me it looked like a failure but they called it victory
BRIDGE 1
G#m B C#m7 F#
Well if you can sleep at night go ahead that s great
G#m B C#m7 F#
You re just dreaming anyway if you don t get irate
CHORUS (twice)
B E B E B E B E
Come on turn it into hate Turn it into hate
Send your little boys and girls to go and play in a giant sandbox
Put your movie stars on the cover of People for goin in for a detox
Let your happy-face news readers share a little joke
at the end of the night s transmission
Let s see the world through the eyes
of some clown gonna make all of your decisions
BRIDGE 2
Well if you can sleep at night go ahead that s great
It s all been manufactured like the junk that s on your plate
CHORUS REPEAT, THEN INSTRUMENTAL BREAK, THEN INTRO REPEAT
Some of them lead the marching band suddenly they re war heroes
Some of them fall in a foreign land Suddenly they re just zeroes
Some of us go back to sleep Some of us learn to fear it
There s a siren blowin in your heart You just don t want to hear it
BRIDGE 3
Well if you can sleep at night go ahead that s all right
Ah just don t start a fight with anyone rich and white
CHORUS REPEAT
B E B E B E B E
Turn it, turn it, turn it, turn it Turn it into hate
