[Intro: sequencer and drum machine, synth bass enters on bar 5] [Verse 1] Inside lane at nine Wipers count the time Every sign says "Centre" Never on my side [Verse 2] Same man at the bus stop Same hand in the air Same grey flyover I was already there [Pre-Chorus] Indicate, indicate Second exit, round again [Chorus] Keep left, keep left Don't look in the mirror Keep left, keep left The headlamps coming nearer Round the ring road Round again Round the ring road Round again [Instrumental: buzzing lead hook over sequencer, abrupt stop] [Verse 3] Petrol light is blinking Radio gone to hiss A woman reading numbers Seven, four, nine, six [Verse 4] Tower blocks in a row Forty floors of grey Someone at the window Every time I pass this way [Pre-Chorus] Indicate, indicate Second exit, round again [Chorus] Keep left, keep left Don't look in the mirror Keep left, keep left The headlamps coming nearer Round the ring road Round again Round the ring road Round again [Bridge: drum machine and synth bass only, spoken, flat, commanding] Mirror. Signal. Manoeuvre. Mirror. Signal. Manoeuvre. Seven. Four. Nine. Six. Mirror. Signal. Manoeuvre. [Break: one bar of silence] [Final Chorus] Keep left, keep left Don't look in the mirror Keep left, keep left The headlamps coming nearer Round the ring road Round again [Outro: sequencer loop, vocal repeats, hard stop] Round again Round again Round again [End]
