Schwa Lyrics

Change

Lyricist: Dave Katz
Vocalist: Dave Katz

First you’re blowing like the summer breeze,
Then you’re falling like autumn leaves,
But if you huddle underneath the trees,
You might not get soaked in the rain.

The sock-eye salmon runs against the stream,
A badger isn’t hurt by honeybees,
A ship can right itself in stormy seas,
But this is a hurricane.

(Chorus)
It can’t go on this way,
Too high of price to pay,
There can be no delay,
What we need is a change today.

I’ve got hatred running through my head,
I know I won’t regret the things I’ve said,
The only color I can see is red,
And don’t look good on me.

Life ain’t easy on the road we tread,
There’s nothing I would rather do instead,
It feels like we are dragging weights of lead,
It’s time to set them free.

Chorus

Sometimes you gotta make a change,
Sometimes you gotta make a change,
It may seem strange to rearrange,
It can be better than it used to be.
Change.

A lot of people gonna shed a tear,
We can’t ignore the problem out of fear,
I know the answer isn’t always clear,
But this is as clear as it gets.
