I said, "I don't wanna hear about the progress that we made"
Slow change, yeah, don't mean nothing, yeah, to me, yeah
'Cause I never did learn how to say, "Isn't this grand?"
That's all right, don't worry, in God do we trust
Slow change, yeah, don't mean nothing, yeah, to me, yeah
"We shall overcome," is what they tell us
As I watch my world get ruined by a pristine hand
Came to play, swept away, no big story
Slow change, yeah, don't mean nothing, yeah, to me
Slow change, yeah, don't mean nothing, yeah, to me, yeah
But the sun goes down and dawns just too many times
I said, "I don't want to hear about the promises they told us"
Besides, you went and got yours, so I guess I'll just go get mine
Black cat, squashed flat, pretty gory
And I'm out here, saying, "Excuse me," like a stranger
Well fear not, cause my fear soon turns to anger
