Turn of the Screw Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Some things I wanna talk about
Let's take this world, and knock it out
To make you believe what it's all about, yeah

[Chorus 1]
But do you need it in your life?
Feel it in your life?
Turning of the screw
The things it makes you do, yeah

[Verse 2]
Some things I wanna shout about
To make it clear without a doubt
Just take these stones, and throw them out, yeah
And when you think about it all the time
You've got to jump and walk the line
Time and time and time and time again

[Chorus 2]
But do you need it in your life?
Feel it in your life?
The turning of the screw
Things it makes you do, yeah
Well, can you breathe it in your life?
Mean it in your life?
The turning of the screw
Things it makes you do, yeah
[Bridge]
And I can't bring up anything
That could make you change your mind
Livin' life is easy livin' blind

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus 3]
But can you need it in your life?
Feel it in your life?
The turning of the screw
Things it makes you do, yeah
Well, can you breathe it in your life?
Mean it in your life?
The turning of the screw
Things it makes you do, yeah

[Outro]
Turning of the (Turning of the)
Turning of the (Turning of the)
Turning of the (Turning of the)
Turning of the (Turning of the)
Turning of the, turning of the
Turning of the, turning of the screw

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
