Guided by Voices - The Other Place lyrics

Change has got to come and I'll be the first to admit it

When pushin' comes to shovin' I'll be the first one to get it

Don't you understand anything?

You won't like it at all when the fire that burns in the predator's eyes

Take[s] another disguise with a different face

And it all gets down to the people in our town [they] don't wanna be found

in the other place

Who am I to argue the words of our prominent leaders?

A little boy stepping in front of his mom when his dad starts to beat her

Don't you understand anything?

You won't like it at all when the fire that burns in the predator's eyes

Take[s] another disguise with a different face

And it all gets down to the people in our town [they] don't wanna be found

in the other place

Changing is an awful task with rules laid out for you

But things are different now and a new world is dying to push through

[Change has got to come and I'll be the first to admit it

When pushin' comes to shovin' I'll be the first one to get it]

[Don't you understand anything?

You won't like it at all when the fire that burns in the predator's eyes

Take[s] another disguise with a different face

And it all gets down to the people in our town [they] don't wanna be found

in the other place

And it all gets down to the people in our town [they] don't wanna be found

in the other place]
