Changes

(With my sincere apologies to David Bowie)

​

Oh, yeah
Mmm

​

Still don’t know what we’ve been waitin’ for
And our time is runnin’ wild
A million dead end words and 
Every time you thought you’d got it made
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
So you turned yourself to leavin’
But we’ve never caught a glimpse
How we now just see the faker
You’ve got to go to pass our test

​

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
None that we can see
Ch-ch-changes
Don’t want the same old picture man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
None that we can see
Ch-ch-changes
There's gonna have to be a different plan
Time may change May
But we don’t have time

​

Mmm, yeah

​

I watched you with your feeble tries
You’ll never leave it clean
Too much intransigence
And so your deals float through my eyes
But still the deals seem the same
And this country that you spit on 
As you try to change our worlds
We’re immune to your consultations
We're quite aware of what you’re trying to do

​

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
None that we can see
Ch-ch-changes
Just tell them to grow up in parliament
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
None that we can see
Ch-ch-changes
Where's your shame?
You've left us up to our necks in it
Time may change May
But we don’t have time

​

Strange fabrications fascinate me
Ah, changes not takin’
The place of that untrue

​

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
None that we can see
Ch-ch-changes
Ooh, look out you vote controllers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
None that we can see
Ch-ch-changes
Pretty soon now you're gonna tell her
Time may change May
But we don’t have time
I said that time may change May
But we don’t have time
