Change

What you’re gonna do with the 36 cents

Sticky with coke on your floorboard

When a woman on the street is huddled in the cold

On a sidewalk bench trying to keep warm

Do you call her over, hand her the change

Ask her her story, ask her her name

Or do you tell yourself

“You’re just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world”

“You’re just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world”

What you’re gonna do when you’re watching TV

And an ad comes on, yeah, you know the kind

Flashing up pictures of a child in need

For a dime a day, you could save a life

Do you call the number, reach out a hand

Or do you change the channel, call it a scam

Do you tell yourself

“You’re just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world”

Don’t listen to them when they say

“You’re just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world”

Oh, the smallest thing can make all the difference

Love is alive, don’t listen to them when they say

“You’re just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world”

The world’s so big, it can break your heart

And you just want to help, not sure where to start

So you close your eyes

And send up a prayer into the dark

“You’re just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world”

Don’t listen to them when they say

“You’re just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world”

Oh, the smallest thing can make all the difference

Love is alive, don’t listen to them when they say

“You’re just a fool, just a fool to believe you can change the world”
