about

©2001 Eileen Hazel
This song came to me while riding my bicycle through the streets of Berkeley and observing the general tendency of drivers not to follow sensible traffic rules!

lyrics

Pardon me, sir, I have a question
Where did you get your driver’s license?
Way back in driver ed when they taught this simple thing
Did you decide that it was all nonsense?

If you want to turn left or you want to turn right
There’s a handy little invention
It’s called a turn signal, also a blinker
So next time display your intention!

It’s right there next to your steering wheel
That little knob sticking out on the side
If you push it down, on comes the left one
If you tap it up, you’re turning right

If you want to turn left or you want to turn right
There’s a handy little invention
It’s called a turn signal, also a blinker
So next time display your intention!

Now you might think I’m being nitpicky
And who am I to tell you how to drive?
But you nearly ran me off the road just now
As I rode by on my little bike

If you want to turn left or you want to turn right
There’s a handy little invention
It’s called a turn signal, also a blinker
So next time display your intention!
