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