JUNE "78"

Look at the stars above, the ground below
Do you see much change?
Look at the trees to your left, the person to your right
Do you see much rain?
The moisture may come but you don’t get wet
I don’t think you should count your prayers just yet.
The stars may shine but you don’t see the light
Don’t think you really ever caught sight.

CHORUS

The winds may blow, while the dust just flows
Does the direction ever change
I say it does, it’s not a permanent wave
The ivy grows on the wall, somehow the structure hasn’t changed at all
Change is hard to do, sometimes it’s easier just to complain,
Just to complain than change.

Stare at the old man sitting in the rocking chair
Does he want to change?
Watch him talk to the youth of today
Is there much exchange?
There should be a flood of talk, people shouldn’t say they’ve learned enough
When that is the case, man can stop, and the blackboard erase.

CHORUS

Change
Why complain ?
It’s up to you, what are you gonna do ?
Never had it put to the test before
When I give you the answer
Know you’re going out the door

CHORUS
