Everything is Changing
Yesterday my best friend
Had black hair on his head
I came to school this morning
His hair was shocking red!
Then suddenly it came to me
Though it may seem kind of strange
Everything in my world’s gonna
change
Everything is changing
Changing really fast
I can’t remember anything
From the past
Everyone is growing
No-one stays the same
I fear before I know it
Everything will change
We used to be a family
Just me and mom and dad
We’re having a new baby
Which makes me pretty sad
The baby will share my room
You should hear how I complain
I told myself not to worry
Cause everything will change
(Chorus)
I wake up in the morning
The clock says 6:00 am
I get to school at 8:15
And everything is back again
The more things change
the more they stay the same...
(Chorus)
Everything is changing
