The Flaming Lips - A Change at Christmas (Say It Isn't So) Lyrics

Alright, here we go
Hey Andrew, you ready over there, huh?
(I'm all set, Wayne)
Hey Richard, you good, huh?
(I'm ready, man, let's do it, come on)
Hey David, you're good, huh?
(I'm feeling good)
Well, Mike?
(Let's do it)
Alright, here we go
I think everything is gonna work out just fine
I can see it, I can see it ahead
Alright
Here we go
Here we go

I know that everything changes
Yeah, it's strange how time marches on
Well, maybe there'll be some time in the future
Oh, tell me (I'm not wrong)
Tell me I'm not wrong
Oh, if I could stop time
It would be a frozen moment just around Christmas
When all of mankind reveals its truest potential
And there is sympathy for the suffering
And there is sympathy for those who are suffering

And the world embraces peace and love
And mercy instead of power and fear
And as sure as I'm standing here
I swear it really does appear
That a change comes over us
Yes, some kind of change comes over us

And it's glimpsed, it's glimpsed for one shining moment
And this change, well it feels like a change that's real
But then it passes along with the season
And then we, we just go back to the way we were
Yeah, we go back to the way we were

Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Tell me I'm not just a dreamer (I'm not just a dreamer)
Tell me, 'cause I'm talking with a friend and he knows how it ends
He says it's easier
He says that that's just the way we are
That it's human nature and that's just the way we are

Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so

Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so (say it isn't so)
Say it isn't so

There you go
I think it's all gonna work out just fine
