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
Changes, turn and face the strange
Changes, don't want to be a richer man
Changes, turn and face the strange
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
Changes, turn and face the strange
Changes, don't tell them to grow up and out of it
Changes, turn and face the strange
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
Changes, turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-changes, oh, look out you rock 'n rollers
Changes, turn and face the strange
Changes, pretty soon now you're gonna get older
Time may change me
But I can't trace time
Time may change me
But I can't trace time
