Paul Weller - The Changingman

Is happiness real?

Or am I so jaded

I cant see or feel - like a man been tainted

Numbed by the effect - aware of the muse

Too in touch with myself - I light the fuse

Im the changingman - built on shifting sands

Im the changingman - waiting for the bang-

As I light a bitter fuse

Time is on loan - only ours to borrow

What I cant be today - I can be tomorrow

And the more I see - the more I know

The more I know - the less I understand.

Im the changingman - built on shifting sands

Im the changingman - waiting for the bang-

To light a bitter fuse

Its a bigger part -

When our instincts act

A shot in the dark -

A movement in black

And the more I see - the more I know

The more I know - the less I understand.

Im the changingman - built on shifting sands

(I dont have a plan)

Im the changingman - waiting for the bang-

To light a bitter fuse
