Lyrics from June 18 Show, Changes by David Bowie

I still don't know what I was waiting for
And my time was running wild

A million dead-end streets

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

Of 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 stranger) Ch-ch-Changes Don't want to be a richer man Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes (Turn and face the stranger) Ch-ch-Changes Just gonna have to be a different man Time may change me
But I can't trace time


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
of what they're going through

Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes (Turn and face the stranger)
Ch-ch-Changes Don't tell them to grow up and out of it
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
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

Changes are taking the pace

I'm going through
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes (Turn and face the stranger)
Ch-ch-Changes
Oh, look out you rock 'n rollers
Ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes
(Turn and face the stranger)
Ch-ch-Changes
Pretty soon you're gonna get a little older
Time may change me

But I can't trace time
I said that time may change me But I can't trace time
