lyrics

"BETTER LOOK BOTH WAYS" by David Guilbault

Better look both ways
Before you take a step.
Better look both ways
Before you step into the fray.

Coming from the left.
Coming from the right.
Coming at you now
With all they got, with all their might.

Look out, look out. Look out, look out.
Well, here they come,
They’re coming on strong. They long for a fight.

They follow like fools.
A mob that’s easily ruled.
They’re led to believe
That those they need are their enemies.

Beware, beware. Beware, beware.
Here they come.
They’re blind and dumb and numb with fear.

Better look ahead
Before look behind.
Better look real good
Because they could be out of their minds.

Hear ye, hear ye. Hear ye, hear ye.
Better look both ways
Before you play with your liberties.

Better look both ways
Before you take a step.
Better look both ways
Before you step into the fray.
