change (what's it gonna take)

listen up

listen up now baby

hear that sound

sounds a lot like revolution

going down

take a look

take a one last look

give a kiss goodbye

you get what you get when you burn too long

and burn too bright

can't live by the needle

when the sweetness goes sour

can't stand in the shadow

while the man takes your power

there ain't no arrival

when you got no direction

nothing gets done if all you got are

good intentions

pack it up

pack it up now baby

let's get gone

time to leave this super highway

we've been on

little bit by little bit

baby make that change

it's a whole new world and a whole new trick

in a whole new ball game

gonna take some fallen angels

gonna take some rain

gonna take some holy water

to change

gonna take a heart on fire

an eternal flame

gonna take some human kindness

to change

turn it up

turn it up

yo crank it

get it off loud

to the beat of the road and the rubber

roll that dirty window down

coming up

coming up

coming up

we'll take our drinks in the shade

but freedom can be so elusive to me

once in focus it's all bound to fade

gonna take some fallen angels

gonna take some rain

gonna take some holy water

to change

gonna take a heart on fire

an eternal flame

gonna take some human kindness

to change

gonna take some fallen angels

gonna take some rain

gonna take some holy water

to change

gonna take a heart on fire

an eternal flame

gonna take some human kindness

to change
