CHANGING THE WORLD


Yes I can change the world
Yes I can change the world…
But I can’t change the world in me. LUCIFER’S HANDS
 
And I felt like a star
I felt the world could go far
If they listened to what I said. THE OCEAN
 
And what am I to do?
What in the world am I to say?
There's nothing else to do.
He says he'll change the world some day
I rejoice. REJOICE
 
And what am I to do?
Just tell me what am I supposed to say?
I can't change the world
But I can change the world in me.
I rejoice. REJOICE
 
Don't believe that Rock 'n' Roll
Can really change the world
As it spins in revolution
Yeah, it spirals and turns. GOD PART II
 
Look I gotta go, yeah, I'm running outta change;
There's a lot of things if I could I'd rearrange. THE FLY
 
And a woman needs a man like a fish needs a bicycle
When you're tryin' to throw your arms around the world. TRYIN’ TO THROW YOUR ARMS AROUND THE WORLD
 
She's gonna dream up
The world she wants to live in
She's gonna dream out loud. ZOOROPA
 
She's not waiting on a saviour to come
She's at the bus stop
With the News Of The World
And the sun, sun, here it comes.
She's not waiting for anyone. LAST NIGHT ON EARTH
 
Grace, it's the name for a girl
It's also a thought that changed the world. GRACE
 
Every generation gets a chance to change the world
Pity the nation that won't listen to your boys and girls
Cos the sweetest melody is the one we haven't heard. I’LL GO CRAZY IF I DON’T GO CRAZY TONIGHT
 
Symbols clashing, bibles smashing
Paint the world you need to see. CEDARWOOD ROAD
 
Soldier soldier
We signed our lives away
Complete surrender
The only weapon we know
Soldier soldier
We knew the world will never be the same
Soldier this is where you can reach me now. THIS IS WHERE YOU CAN REACH ME NOW
 
So young to be the words of your own song
I know the rage in you is strong
Write a world where we can belong
to each other and sing it like no other. LOVE IS BIGGER THAN ANYTHING IN ITS WAY
