So I turned myself to face me
Pretty soon you're gonna get a little older
Where's your shame, you've left us up to our necks in it
I'm much too fast to take that test
Of how the others must see the faker
Strange fascination, fascinating me
Changes are taking the pace, I'm going through
And so the days float through my eyes
Time may change me
(Turn and face the strange)
As they try to change their worlds
(Turn and face the strange)
Are immune to your consultations
(Turn and face the strange)
But still the days seem the same
(Turn and face the strange)
I said that time may change me
Time may change me
Ch-ch-changes, ch-ch-changes
Look out you rock 'n rollers
Ch-ch-changes, ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
It seemed the taste was not so sweet
But you can't trace time
But I can't trace time
Time may change me
I can't trace time
Ch-ch-changes, ch-ch-changes
(Turn and face the strange)
Don't have to be a richer man
Ch-ch-changes, ch-ch-changes
But I, I've never caught a glimpse
And these children that you spit on
Don't tell them to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-changes, ch-ch-changes
Every time I thought I'd got it made
Ch-ch-changes, ch-ch-changes
I watch the ripples change their size
But never leave the stream of warm impermanence
They're quite aware of what they're going through
Don't want to be a better man
