I 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
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
Changes are taking the
pace
I'm going through
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
I
said that time may change me
But I can't trace time
