Jeremy Toback – Green Light lyrics
I remember when the first REM record
Had me blowing off Shakespeare
For a shooting star and a bass guitar
I remember exchanging all that fervor
For a postmodern method
To practice war in a coffee bar
I remember all the ways I evaded my heart
And told that girl she would not be mine
I remember receiving her letter that said
Wake up, little boy
Before you lose your lifeline
Here's to the rise and the fall
What feels so wrong
Turns out all right
What feels so right
Can turn a green light to a yellow light
What feels so wrong
Turns out all right
What feels so right
Can turn a yellow light to a red light
Red light
I was busy avoiding obligation
Imagined myself as the next man in town
To wear a crown of absolute adulation
'Cause if everybody knows you
Then you've reached the high crowd
But love can get lost on that cloud
What feels so wrong
Turns out all right
What feels so right
Can turn a green light to a yellow light
What feels so wrong
Turns out all right
What feels so right
Can turn a yellow light to a red light
Turn a red light to a green light
Green light
Green light
Hey, have you heard the new world record?
Sounds like we're ready to release and unwind
All that wisdom that's been hiding in the open
Since the beginning of myth
Since the first note of time
What feels so wrong
Turns out all right
