Changes - Intellectual

[Intro]

Oh, yeah

Mmm

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

Of 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 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

Ooh, yeah

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

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

Strange fascination, fascinating me

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

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
