This is two songs, crossfaded, paired, married. Turnaround is the first song. Seafarer is the second.

Facetious attitude periodically eclipsed by heart-felt wonderings about the existential root
WHERE SAVAGES ROAM I'm threatened by the safety net and troubled by solutions to the problems of the world I tremble when the earth is calm and sleep under the rubble like a frightened feral animal Oh, but it's cold in the home where the savages roam Where the savages roam Aah, aah, aah ... The harshest winter yet All the horses have run crazy God has killed the internet The final course has been taken No, no, no No, no, no No, no, no Aah, aah, aah ...

Story behind the song
Both tunes were written circa '83, first recorded in sequence in 92. Turnaround had some problems, though, and had to go away for a few years. Both songs return, reunited, with this fresh recording of August 2011.
Lyrics
TURNAROUND: coming soon to this space SEAFARER: Waters get rough but I know you're toughened by forty years out on the ocean for a whale Battered and bloody, your hands won't let go of the oar when you know that it's all that you hold here on the fathomless ocean, blow Sailors, whalers, fare ye well, sirs Sailors, whalers, fare ye well, sirs Feathers get ruffled when the Arctic winds blow and the turbulent seas come a-crashing o'er the bow testing the mettle of the crusty old seafarer blind, in confusion, he still holds the line e'er in his fatal seclusion Sailors, whalers, fare ye well, sirs Sailors, whalers, fare ye well, sirs Sailors, whalers, fare ye well, sirs
