Lyrics Time For A Change - Peter Hammill

Time For A Change

Time for a change:
I felt bad, things looked strange
Home, home on the range...
Yes, it's time for a change
"Well, young man, when you grow up
What do you want to be?"
"Please, sir, if that's alright
I'd really rather like to learn how to be me."
Switch on the light
Getting late, almost night
A shilling puts you right
You can switch off the night
The world was looking stretched and tight
It's an overblown balloon
I've got the feeling something big
Has got to happen soon
Oh, time for a change
Out of reach, out of range
Go and tell Doctor Strange
That it's time for a change
Time for a change
Time for a change
