Changes

[Intro]

Look out

Oh yeah

[Verse 1]

Still don't know what I was waiting for

And my time was running wild, a million dead-end streets and

Every time I thought I'd got it made

It seemed the taste was not so sweet

So, I turned myself to face me

But I've never caught a glimpse

How the others must see the faker

I'm much too fast to take that test

[Chorus]

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (Turn and face the strange)

Ch-ch-changes, don't want to be a richer man

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (Turn and face the strange)

Ch-ch-changes, just gonna have to be a different man

Time may change me

But I can't trace time

[Interlude]

Oh yeah

[Verse 2]

I watch the ripples change their size

But never leave the stream of warm impermanence and

So the days float through my eyes

But still the days seem the same

And these children that you spit on

As they try to change their worlds

Are immune to your consultations

They're quite aware of what they're going through

[Chorus]

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (Turn and face the strange)

Ch-ch-changes, don't tell them to grow up and out of it

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (Turn and face the strange)

Ch-ch-changes, where's your shame?

You've left us up to our necks in it

Time may change me

But you can't trace time

[Bridge]

Strange fascination, fascinating me

Ah, changes are taking the pace I'm going through

[Chorus]

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (turn and face the strange)

Ch-ch-changes, oh, look out you rock 'n rollers

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (turn and face the strange)

Ch-ch-changes, pretty soon now you're gonna get older

Time may change me

But I can't trace time

[Outro]

I said that time may change me

But I can't trace time
