Things are changing
Can you hang on
Things are changing
Bang a gong
Write it on my headstone
Things were changing
And he held on
Bang a gong
Ain’t the first
Won’t be the last
Things are changing
They can kiss my ***
Write it on my headstone
Write it in the sky
Things are changing
I’m holding on

They can kiss my ***
Write it on my headstone
Write it in the sky
Things are changing
