Schwa Lyrics

Change

Lyricist: Dave Katz
Vocalist: Dave Katz

First you’re blowing like the summer breeze
Then you’re falling like the 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

It can’t go on this way
Too high a 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 red 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 just like we’re draggin, weights of lead
It’s time to set them free

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

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

It can’t go on this way
Too high a price to pay
There can be no delay
What we need is a change, and we’ll change today
