lyrics

i see the way the salesmen stare into the sun
i stood and watched them as they fell off one by one
and everyone's so blind, they're not to help mankind
reach into your bag of tricks and pull another one
you don't want to change the world like you say
you're in it for yourself, no one else
you're ready saving yourself
you're gonna change the world
you're ready saving yourself 
you're gonna change the world
now when the day is set they'll line up all the same
and those that need the most will never get or gain
the ones you call your friends, are failing you again
reach into your bag of tricks and make it go away
you don't want to change the world like you say
you're in it for yourself, no one else
you're ready saving yourself
you're gonna change the world
you're ready saving yourself 
you're gonna change the world
and since you ain't what you say, then just go away
cause some don't lie, some don't lie
go on now they won't tell 
go on now and save yourself
