I Would Love To Change The World

I've been on course since seventeen
It's who you know and where you've been
Until it's you they want to know
I learned the rule ther are no rules
Exept that gentlemen are fools
I order principles to go.

There is no secret to success
As long as others want it less
It is no substance it is style
Ther is no deal that can't be done
Retaliation can be fun
I never walk that extra mile.

I have acquired the winner's touch
Of seeming happy with so much
I can be honest if required
I have succeeded and that's all
But then as far as I recall
That's really all that I desired.

Oh I would love to change the world
Its many failings one by one
To be the artist, poet, priest
Who feels the battle can be won
And I would love to fall in love
To lose my heart, to lose control
To break away, set rolling free
The darkest secrets of my soul
The darkest secrets of my soul.

Oh I would love to change the world
To feel my momen's just begun
To steal a march, to play for keeps
To break the mould, to jump the gun
As no-one else has ever done
And I would love to fall in love
And I give you all of me and more
I long to say that I believe
in words I've never used before
In words no lover used before.

Oh i would love to change the world
To break away set rolling free
The darkest secrets of my soul
At least the world's not changing me...
