I still don't know what I was looking for And my time was running wild A million dead-end streets Every time I thought I'd got it made It seemed the taste was not so sweet So I turned myself to face me But I've never caught a glimpse Of how the others must see the faker I'm much too fast to take that test
(Turn and face the stranger) Don't want to be a richer one (Turn and face the stranger) Just gonna have to be a different one
I watch the ripples change their size But never leave the stream Of warm impermanence ande So the days float through my eyes But still the days seem the same And these children that you spit on As they try to change their worlds Their immune to your consultations They're quite aware of what they're going through
(Turn and face the stranger) Don't tell them to grow up and out of it (Turn and face the stranger) You've left us up to our necks in it
Strange fascination, fascinating me Changes are taking the pace I'm going through
(Turn and face the stranger) Oh, look out you rock ' rollers (Turn and face the stranger) Pretty soon you're gonna get a little older I said that time may change me More from Butterfly Boucher
