So how long had you gone Before you realized your maps were wrong? You're turning up in places Where you don't belong And the walls have something to hide Well, I could be way over there in a minute If I had enough strength bear and grin it If the measure of the match was fair Then you'd win it But, you're bound to lose Well, It doesn't take a miracle Or a natural disaster To live in the world that you're after The change is gonna happen to you Well, it hardly seems worth the time you spend complaining If you're bitching at a world full of people And explaining yourself And how their life could be so much better If yous ain't so good Well, I can leave it all up to the presidents Relying on the people To believe false evidence You could fight your way into a permanent residence In the big house, with free food, but no trees It doesn't take a miracle Or a natural disaster To live in the world that you're after The change is gonna happen to you It doesn't take a miracle Or a natural disaster To live in the world that you're after The change is gonna happen to you I could my voice out across a great loud speaker And attempt to give strength to the folks feeling weaker Yeah, you could call yourself A genuine truthseeker But, watch out because it might be found It's kinda hard cause things ain't what they seem But, it sure feels good to row gently down the stream And it all makes sense Life is but a dream So, go merrily Go merrily, yeah It doesn't take a miracle Or a natural disaster To live in the world that you're after The change is gonna happen to you Yea, it doesn't take a miracle Or a natural disaster To live in the world that you're after The change is gonna happen to you Change is gonna happen to you So how long had you gone Before you realized your maps were wrong? You're turning up in places Where you don't belong And everybody's got something to hide
