{Verse riff}
Stand in the place where you live
Now face North
Think about direction
Wonder why you haven't now
{Verse riff}
Now stand in the place where you were
Now face West
Think about the place where you live
Wonder why you haven't before
{Chorus riff}
If you are confused check with the sun
Carry a compass to help you along
{Chorus riff}
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around
{Verse riff}
So stand in the place where you live
Now face North
Think about direction
Wonder why you haven't now
{Verse riff}
Now stand in the place where you were
Now face West
Think about the place where you live
Wonder why you haven't before
{Chorus riff}
Your feet are going to be on the ground
Your head is there to move you around
{Chorus riff}
If wishes were trees the trees would be falling
Listen to reason
The reason is calling
{Verse riff}
Stand in the place where you live
Now face North
Think about direction
Wonder why you haven't before
{Verse riff}
Now stand in the place where you were
Now face West
Think about the place where you live
Wonder why you haven't before
