The scene is set
|
everybody's in place
|
Two chairs filled
|
for every five gone to waste
|
Pantsuit girl
|
gives me a nasty gaze
|
She says play that
|
on your own time
|
Walk to the bandstand
|
blow my horn
|
Nobody knows
|
what we're really here for
|
Let's take it out hard
|
till they show us the door
|
It's us against them tonight
|
Play the changes
|
Make the changes
|
Hear the changes
|
Take it out hard
|
till they show us the door
|
<interlude>
|
A girl with a nose ring
|
said to me
|
She said where's the
|
joy in your delivery
|
I said maybe there's not
|
supposed to be
|
Any real joy at all here
|
She sat there with that
|
plaster smile
|
As we sit jiving
|
but in a little while
|
Holding her hair
|
she joined the single file
|
And walked on down the hall
|
Play the changes
|
Make the changes
|
Hear the changes
|
Us against them tonight
|
<interlude>
|
The owner says
|
he thinks we need some work
|
Got a place for you
|
got some roadwork
|
Laying asphalt
|
on the interstate
|
Nobody cares
|
and why should they
|
<interlude>
|
A white girl in a dashiki says
|
you're all the rage
|
My friends and I think you're
|
quite the sage
|
Wear a kofu
|
and a finger guage
|
To see which way
|
the wind blows today
|
Play the changes
|
Make the changes
|
Hear the changes
|
To see which way
|
the wind blows today
|
Old friend Dave
|
with the silver spoon
|
Says why don't you play those
|
good old tunes
|
Give it up now
|
you could fill the room
|
I say there's nothing like
|
a good Trane tune
|
Changes
|
These things called changes
|
Where do we go from here?
