Things really are bound to change.

Lyrics

CHANGE

If you?re sittin? here thinkin? ?bout goin? away
For a well deserved extended stay
You better think twice ?cause I?m here to say
That things are bound to change

I went out on the road to raise the roof
To clear my head and to seek the truth
I came back in shock and bearing proof
That things can really change

First, I headed to the West Coast ???.And

I seen a young man moanin? who was not hurt
I seen an elderly woman in a mini-skirt
I seen a fashion statement in a bowling shirt
I seen a Super-Model playin? in the dirt

I seen apples hangin? from a coconut tree
I seen pacifists goin? on a killin? spree
I seen movie stars hangin? round Wounded Knee
I seen politicians givin? away money for free
I seen way too many strange things for one man today

I seen liberals with hearts that would not bleed
I seen God fearin? folks walkin? round in need
I seen natural beauty that had gone to seed
I seen leaders of nations overcome with greed

I seen a trolley car rollin? where there were?nt no rail
I seen people duckin? bullets that rained like hail
I seen a blind man shoutin? tryin? to pay his bail
I seen a bald headed monkey without no tail
I seen way too many strange things for one man today

Then I headed on over to the East Coast ???.And
I seen a teen-aged millionaire dribble a ball
I seen my country?s symbols crumble and fall
I seen soldier?s names chiseled in a wall
I seen unlikely heroes that have answered the call

I seen a high priced lawyer in a evening dress
I seen a transcendental who would not regress
I seen bold faced lies that were goin? to press
I seen sins that the clergy could not bless
I seen way too many strange things for one man today

I seen best laid plans that have gone awry
I seen Rock & Roll that would not die
I seen an Ol? Dude who said he?d try
To walk up and spit in the Devil?s eye

I seen the perfect wave that would not curl
I seen a talkin? Moose and a flyin? Squirrel
I seen an old folk singer by the name of Burl
I seen the final act begin to unfurl

I seen way too many strange things for one man today
I seen way too many strange things for one man today
I seen way too many strange things for one man today

I SEEN A BALD HEADED MONKEY
I SEEN A BALD HEADED MONKEY
I SEEN A BALD HEADED MONKEY
WITHOUT NO TAIL
