1.
B5 G#5 A5 F#5 G#5 F#5
When the hands that operate the motor lose control of the lever
B5 G#5 A5 F#5 G#5 F#5
When the mind of its own in the wheel puts two and two together
B5 G#5 A5 F#5
When the indicator says you're out of oil,
G#5 F#5
Should you continue driving anyway?
B5 G#5 A5 F#5 G#5
There's a thermostat that regulates the temperature that might not be
A5 B5 Bb5
Reliable That should be disconnected

B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
Turn it up, turn it down
B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
Turn it up when the cold brings you down
B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
When the heat bothers you turn it down
B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
Turn it up, turn it down
G5 F#5
As I was just saying

I was just talking
B5 G#5 A5 F#5 G#5 F#5
And Someone interrupted
B5 G#5 A5 F#5 G#5 F#5
Or was it a loud explosion?
B5 G#5 A5 F#5 G#5 A5
Or is the thermostat engulfed in flames
B5 Bb5
Or is it just me?
Chorus:
B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
Turn it up, turn it down
B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
Turn it up when the cold brings you down
B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
When the heat bothers you turn it down
B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
Turn it up, turn it down
G5 F#5
As I was just saying
E5 F#5
As I was just saying
E5 F#5 G#5 Bb5 B5
As I was just saying

Final Chorus:
B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
Turn it up, turn it down
B5 A5 G#5 G5 F#5
