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