Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Standing at the crossroads, world spinning round and round
Know which way I'm going, you can't bring me down
Don't you try and teach me no original sin
I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in
[Verse 2]
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
[Verse 3]
Tell me I'm a sinner, I got news for you
I spoke to God this morning and he don't like you
You're telling all the people the original sin
He says he knows you better than you'll ever know him
[Verse 4]
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
[Verse 5]
You know it ain't easy
You know it ain't fair
So don't try and please me
Because I really don't care
[Verse 6]
Don't tell me stories 'cause yesterday's glories
Have gone away, so far away
I've heard it said there's a light up ahead
Lord, I hope and pray I'm here to stay
[Verse 7]
Tell me I'm a sinner, I got news for you
I spoke to God this morning and he don't like you
Don't you try and teach me no original sin
I don't need your pity for the shape I'm in
[Verse 8]
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
[Verse 9]
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me
I don't want to change the world
I don't want the world to change me no, no, no
