The opening track to Fugazi’s full-length debut album, this frantic headbanger serves as a warning about mass ignorance in light of ongoing social issues.
The rest of the album demonstrates Fugazi’s political stance on such problems, including violence, greed, sexuality and drug abuse. In some ways...
[Verse 1]
Languor rises reaching
To turn off the alarm
And there's never so much seething
That it can't be disarmed
[Chorus]
You just
Stop it up
Pass it on
Shove it to shelf it
To leave it off and
Turn over
[Verse 2]
Lounging against your weapons
Until your muscles find lock
In the ease of that position
A residue of tremor passes
As some cherie amour suggests
Maybe it was time to smash things up
[Chorus]
But just
Stop it up
Pass it on
Shove it to shelf it
To lead it on and
Turn over
[Bridge]
Stop, turnover
Stop, turn over
[Chorus]
Stop it up
Pass it on
Shove it to shelf it
To lead it on and
Turn over
To just
Stop it up
Pass it on
Shove it to shelf it
To lead it on and
I'm only
I'm only sleeping
[Outro]
I'm only
I'm only sleeping
Turnover was written by Fugazi.
