There'll Be Some Changes Made
Embracing Change: A Musical Journey Through Life's Transformations
Lyrics
They say don't change the old for the new
Advice to retain old ways instead of embracing the new
But I've found out this will never do
Realization that sticking to the old ways is not viable
When you grow old you don't last long
Reflection on the brevity of life in old age
You're here today and then tomorrow you're gone
Highlighting the transient nature of existence
I loved a gal for many years gone by
Past love that endured for many years
I tho't he love for me would never die
Expectation of eternal love shattered by changes
She made some changes that would never do
Reference to the partner's unacceptable changes
From now on I'm goin' to make some changes too
Decision to make personal changes in response
For there's a change in the weather
Noticing changes in external conditions
There's a change in the sea
Observing changes in the sea and weather
So from now on there'll be a change in me
Commitment to personal change from this point forward
My walk will be diff'rent, my talk and my name
Commitment to changes in walking, talking, and identity
Nothin' about me is goin' to be the same
Expressing a complete transformation of self
I'm goin' to change my way of livin' if that ain't enough
Intention to change lifestyle significantly
Then I'll change the way that I strut my stuff
Willingness to alter behavior and presentation
'Cause nobody wants you when you're old and gray
Recognition of society's bias against the elderly
There'll be some changes made
Reiteration of forthcoming changes
They say the old time things are the best
Mention of the perceived value of old-fashioned things
That may be very good for all the rest
Acknowledgment that old things may suit others but not oneself
But I'm goin' to let the old things be
Decision to leave old things unchanged
'Cause they are certainly not suited for me
Rejecting the suitability of old things for personal preferences
There was a time when I thought that way
Reflecting on past adherence to outdated beliefs
That's why I'm all alone here today
Result of being alone due to outdated perspectives
Since ev'ry one of these days seeks something new
Acknowledging the universal quest for new experiences
From now on I'm goin' to seek some new things too
Commitment to seeking new things henceforth
For there's a change in the weather
Reiteration of changes in external conditions
There's a change in the sea
Emphasizing ongoing changes in the sea and weather
So from now on there'll be a change in me
Reaffirmation of personal commitment to change
Why, my walk will be be different, and my talk and my name
Restating changes in walking, talking, and identity
Nothing about me gonna be the same
Asserting a complete transformation of self
I'm gonna change my way of livin', and that ain't no shock
Affirming a significant shift in lifestyle
Why, I'm thinking of changin' the way I gotta set my clock
Contemplating changes in daily routines
Because nobody wants you when you're old and gray
Acknowledging societal aversion to aging
There's gonna be some changes made today
Anticipating and announcing imminent changes
There'll be some changes made
Reiteration of the upcoming alterations
