[Verse 1]
So how long had you gone
Before you realized your maps were wrong?
You re turning up in places
Where you don t belong
And the walls have something to hide
WellI could be way over there in a minute
If I had enough strength bear and grin it
If the measure of the match was fair
Then you d win it
Butyou re bound to lose
[Chorus]
WellIt doesn t take a miracle
Or a natural disaster
To live in the world that you re after
The change is gonna happen to you
[Verse 2]
Wellit hardly seems worth the time you spend complaining
If you re bitching at a world full of people
And explaining yourself
And how their life could be so much better
If yous ain t so good
WellI can leave it all up to the presidents
Relying on the people
To believe false evidence
You could fight your way into a permanent residence
In the big housewith free foodbut no trees
[Chorus]
It doesn t take a miracle
Or a natural disaster
To live in the world that you re after
The change is gonna happen to you
It doesn t take a miracle
Or a natural disaster
To live in the world that you re after
The change is gonna happen to you
[Verse 3]
I could my voice out across a great loud speaker
And attempt to give strength to the folks feeling weaker
Yeahyou could call yourself
A genuine truthseeker
Butwatch out because it might be found
It s kinda hard cause things ain t what they seem
Butit sure feels good to row gently down the stream
And it all makes sense
Life is but a dream
Sogo merrily
Go merrilyyeah
[Chorus]
It doesn t take a miracle
Or a natural disaster
To live in the world that you re after
The change is gonna happen to you
Yeait doesn t take a miracle
Or a natural disaster
To live in the world that you re after
The change is gonna happen to you
Change is gonna happen to you
[Outro]
So how long had you gone
Before you realized your maps were wrong?
You re turning up in places
Where you don t belong
And everybody s got something to hide
