Change my Ways

The cold war's over

The hot one's just begun

From the shivers to the fever

Could be too much sun

If a thing's worth doing

It's worth doing well

But if we don't get moving

We'll be roasting in hell

I've got to change my ways

In the House of dereliction

In the world of neglect

No one gives a bit about

What happens next

Reaching terminal velocity

Going out with a bang

Time to fill my pockets

Gonna take what I can

I've got to change my ways

If the truth be told

But then on the other hand

It's gonna get twisted

Any way you stand

Honesty's a virtue

Or so they say

That's a damn fool notion

Like a sense of fair play

I've got to change my ways

I bare my soul

Though I'm naturally shy

There's no point living

If I'm living a lie

I've had my share

Of disappointment and pain

But, I never felt the need

To point the finger of blame

I've got to change my ways
