Changes

Look out
Ooh, yeah

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

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes, don't wanna 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

Ooh, yeah

I watched 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

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes, come down to crawling out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes, where's your shame?
You left us all to run next to it
Time may change me, but you can't trace time

Strange fascination, fascinating me
Our changes are taking the place I'm going to

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes (Turn and face the strange)
Ch-ch-changes, ooh, 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
I said that time may change me, but I can't trace time
