Yesterday I asked you a favor...yesterday you politely declined
And today I repeated my request...you shook your head as you repeated your reply
Chorus:
Where do you go when the tables turn?
Will the bridges you've built stand up to the people you've burned?
Do you gain or lose when you get what you deserve?
Who do you run to when the tables turn?
Road flares up ahead...another Goodyear just went bad
A sympathetic smile is all they'll get from you
You can't be too careful these days as you race along the highway
That broken down old lady you'll soon forget
(Chorus)
Shake, shake, shake goes the coin cup
His eyes too tired to look up...And see your pockets jingle by
But you're late, late, late and you know just where that precious change goes
So you hurry off to lunch before you hear his children cry
