Lyrics Man in the Mirror - 2012 Remaster - Michael Jackson

I'm gonna make a change
For once in my life

It's gonna feel real good
Gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right

As I, turn up the collar on
My favourite winter coat
This wind is blowing my mind
I see the kids in the streets
With not enough to eat
Who am I to be blind?
Pretendin' not to see their needs

A summer disregard, a broken bottle top
And a one-man soul
They follow each other on the wind ya' know
'Cause they got nowhere to go
That's why I want you to know

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change

Na-na-na
Na-na-na
Nana-nana

I've been a victim of a selfish kind of love
It's time that I realize
That there are some with no home, not a nickel to loan
Could it be really me, pretending that they're not alone?

A willow deeply scarred
Somebody's broken heart
And a washed-out dream
They follow the pattern of the wind ya' see
'Cause they got no place to be
That's why I'm starting with me

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (who?)
I'm asking him to change his ways (who?)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself, and then make a change

I'm starting with the man in the mirror (who?)
I'm asking him to change his ways (who?)
And no message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make that
Change

I'm starting with the man in the mirror
(Oh, yeah)
I'm asking him to change his ways
No message could have been any clearer

If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make the change
You gotta get it right, while you got the time
'Cause when you close your heart (you can't)
Then you close your, mind

(That man, that man, that man, that man)
With the man in the mirror, oh yeah
(That man, that man, that man)
I'm asking him to change his ways
(Better change!)
No message could have been any clearer
If you want to make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make the change

Na-na-na
Na-na-na
Nana-nana
Ooh, gonna feel real good (yeah, yeah, yeah)

I'm gonna make a change
It's gonna feel real good!
Chime on
(Change)

Just lift yourself
You know
You've got to stop it
Yourself
(Yeah, make that change)
I've got to make that change, today

Hoo
(Man in the mirror)
You got to
You got to not pick yourself
Brother
Hoo
(Yeah, make that change)

I've got to get that man, that man
(Man in the mirror)
You've got to move, chime on
Chime on!
You got to
Stand up! Stand up! Stand up!
(Yeah, make that change)
Stand up and lift yourself, now

(Man in the mirror)
Hoo, hoo, hoo! Ow!
(Yeah, make that change)
Gonna make that change
Chime on
(Man in the mirror)

You know it
You know it
You know it
You know it
(Change)
Make that change
