It's at last a new day
Spacey clothes and featherboahs are lying on the floor
Wish I could buy a new face
So I could walk the streets and no-one'd notice me at all
Ain't got no radar, nowhere to crash
If I go on like this I sure ain't gonna last

Lord, give me the power to change
When I realize I've turned into something that I hate
Lord, give me the power to change
When I realize I've turned into something that I ain't

And then you brought me new friends
And you should know that I have been so thankful for them all
But they all took me sideways
'Cause I never wanted to be anybody's superman at all, no
You see; I'm only human, I make mistakes
I'm not the devil, but I sure ain't no saint

Lord, give me the power to change
When I realize I've turned into something that I hate
Lord, give me the power to change
When I realize I've turned into something that I ain't
Said, Lord give me the power to change
(Realize now that you gotta change your ways)

Looooooooord! Don't knock me down
Strike me, anger, hit me, please
I'm serious this time
Hit me. Hit me. Hit me with it

See I've got the gift to make people less afraid
It's time I use it for something else than gettin laid

Lord, give me the power to change
When I realize I've turned into something that I hate
Lord, give me the power to change
When I realize I've turned into something that I ain't

Said; Lord, give me the power to change
(Realize now that you gotta change your ways)

(Said looord, hey, hey, hey, hey
I said lord, I said lord
I said change, change, change, change, change
See the change, see the change, see the change, change)
