Time To Ring Some Changes
Richard Thompson
- This old house is a tumbling down
- The walls are gone but the roof is sound
- The landlord's deaf, he can never be found
- It's time to ring some changes
- They'll arrest you son if you just stand still
- They'll ask you to pose with your hand in the till
- They'll ask you to die when you've written your will
- It's time to ring some changes
- Time to ring some changes, time to ring some changes
- Time to ring some changes, time to ring some changes
- You earn your money for your daily bread
- But the bread's gone up so you need more money
- But the money's gone down, better borrow instead
- It's time to ring some changes
- Now the politicians, they look so smug
- They say tell the truth, then they give you a shrug
- You might find the truth swept under the rug
- It's time to ring some changes
- Time to ring some changes, time to ring some changes
- Time to ring some changes, time to ring some changes
- Now listen here to the self-made man
- He says why can't you if I can
- Can't you push buttons, can't you make plans
- It's time to ring some changes
- I'm going to tear this mansion down
- Get my feet back on the ground
- Penny for penny and pound for pound
- It's time to ring some changes
- Time to ring some changes, time to ring some changes
- Time to ring some changes...
