Most women set out to try to change a man, and when they have changed him they do not like him.

Everybody Oughta Make A Change
Everybody oughta make a change
(by sleepy john estes)
Change in the weather, change in the sea,
Come back baby, youll find a change in me.
Everybody, they ought to change sometime,
Because sooner or later we have to go down in that lonesome ground.
I changed suits, I changed shirts,
I changed, baby, just to get shed of the dirt.
Everybody, we ought to change sometime,
Because sooner or later were going down in that lonesome ground.
I changed honey, I changed money,
I changed, people, just to keep from being funny.
Everybody, they ought to change sometime,
Because sooner or later were going down in that lonesome ground.
Change in the ocean, change in the sea,
Come back baby, youll find a change in me.
Everybody, we ought to change sometime,
Because sooner or later were going down in that lonesome ground.

So Soon We Change
(rod stewart / chen, savigar, cregan, grainger)
Seems like only yesterday
We were laughing like a couple of kids
Fun we had when first met
Aint been around much since
Sharing every hour every day
Funny how time slips away
But theres no replacement, baby
When the good times fade away
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Funny how soon we change
Oh how soon we changed
You remember caseys bar
And maxfields after dark
We were different people then
Inseparable never apart
But now the novelty is wearing thin
We spend most time arguing
It was all so easy then
Itll never be again
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
I thought I knew you inside out
But obviously I was wrong
Makes no difference what I say
We just dont get along
Face the facts it can never last
Were driffing apart real fast
Id gladly give up everything
To start all over again
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Funny how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Funny how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed
Oh how soon we changed

We Need No Change
we need no change
We cannot change the society
We cannot change the world
For whatever everything was born with own beauty
WE WANT CHANGE
because we have ALEADY
changed the unchanged
chained the unchained
if changed… will be chained
if unchanged… will be unchained
we want to see the caged birds fly NOW
when it was ALEADY FLYING
change made everything hostile
for this earth was ALREADY rich and fertile
We shall see these un.changed events evolving through these beauties
Let Every thing be unchanged but UNCHAINED
For we don’t want ourself to change but unchained
Not to be confused here again
We need no revolution
We need is evolution-[natural selection]
We need no solution
We need is a RESOLUTION
YES WE NEED TO CHANGE THE MIND SET[means setting the mind RIGHT]
Never mind CHANGE IT FAST
For nothing need change is the global WAR. NING
Think of NOTHING now
Human lullabies
You need sometime to sleep
Do not think of changing sleep
For we NEED to WALK and WAKE UP tommorrow

How Many Women Are Out There?
How many women are out there,
That are looking for a man?
That would fight for what he believes in,
And would do whatever he can.
How many women are out there,
That wish that they could find?
A man that looks at future.
Not the things that are left behind.
How many women are out there,
That seek a man who's true?
When the situation arises,
It's the right thing he will do.
How many women are out there,
Looking for a man with determined heart?
To change the things he needs to change,
To make a brand new start.
How many women are out there,
That are looking for a friend?
One that would always be there for you.
On him you could depend.
How many women are out there,
That are looking for a lover?
To hold you hand when you walk around,
And hold your heart under the covers.
How many women are out there,
Think this man does not exist?
A figment of your imagination.
Is it one you can't resist?
How many women are out there,
That this is your desire?
This is the man you're seeking.
The one who'll light your fire.
How many women are out there,
They think that this man could be?
I'll let you know he does exist.
That man is simply me.

Samuel and Harold discuss Ovid's dictum
S You look much the same, Harry
H You don’t look much different, Sam
S Though times change
H They don’t stay the same
S Or perhaps they seem to change
H Or seem to be different
S And we change too
H We’re not quite the same
S Though perhaps they only seem to change because we’ve changed
H Perhaps we’re different and they only seem to change
S On the other hand, perhaps times do change and we only seem to change
H Perhaps we only seem to change because times do change
S Or perhaps both change
H Perhaps neither stay the same
S That would make it difficult to tell
H It wouldn’t be easy
S Perhaps you’ve changed and I don’t notice it
H Or perhaps I’ve changed and you don’t notice it
S I feel mostly the same, though
H I don’t feel much different
S Though in some ways I feel different
H I don’t feel quite the same myself
S Life moves on
H It doesn’t stay the same
S Though I’d know you anywhere
H I can’t imagine not knowing you. Anywhere.
S Our plays change, but the dialogue…don’t you think?
H They are different, but the dialogue…as you say..
S Alive or dead… the play doesn’t change…
H Dead or alive…the play stays much the same, , ,
S Though the dialogue…
H Ah yes, the dialogue…
S Yours, for instance…
H Or indeed, yours…
S That dictum of Ovid…
H Ah yes, Ovid’s dictum...
S So true…
H Not untrue…
S Plus ca change... as they say, Harry...
H... plus ca la meme chose, as they say, Sam...

In The Wind Of Change
IN THE WIND OF CHANGE
In the wind of change
things had really changed
like the winter's time,
and the summer's time
as our season's change
but never did I change
for this only love in me
will always be in memory
even you had changed
and truly gone stranged.

Like Wind
Women change their minds
Like wind changes course
They easily leave behind
Theirs loves with no remorse.
Women change their views
Like wind changes force
A right they always use
That they are women, of course.
But winds can hurt your eye
And women can crush your heart
Though living you want die
Till another makes Love start.

What Did I Do To You?
(l. stansfield/i. devaney/a. morris)
Its the way you walk, and the way you talk
Now youre nothing near the way that you were
And theres something strange when you hold my hand
Tell my why you changed the way that we were
Tell my why you changed the way that we were
Could we be the same, could we try again
Chorus:
What did I do to you, baby?
What did I do to you, baby?
What did I do to you, what did I do to you?
What did I do to you, baby?
You never touch my skin, in the way you did
And you even changed the way you kiss me
When lovers part theres a change of heart
But my heart cant change the way that we were
Oh no, my heart cant change the way that we were
Could we be the same, could we try again
Chorus
Togetherness is when I undress
Never when we talk, never tenderness
And I cant forget all the joy we had
But I know well be the way we were
Yes, I know well be the way we were
Could we be the same, could we try again
Chorus
Help me back

One Cannot Change The World
One cannot change the World so why even bother to try
Since the fundamentalists out there do their best to deny
Others of their beliefs those who to them think differently
Extremists of any sort seem dangerous to me.
One cannot change the World but by good example one can lead
One cannot grow crops if one doesn't plant good seed
If everyone changed themselves for the better then all wars would cease
And there would not be mistrust and hatred and there would be peace.
One cannot change the World for that much help one would need
But where one would fail many might succeed
If billions changed for the better the war men would not have a say
And beautiful peace would be with us to stay.
For to change the World one can play a part
By helping out others out of kindness of heart
Down the pathway to peace you are leading the way
And with help from many the World may change for the better one day.

People around me
People around me, never changed, but I changed,
The people to see, same, I, not.
All people I known, before and now, bad,
I have changed, for them, am sad.
They shot me words, when am sight
Never did the same, today not fight.
People, that I see, from change, is free
But one thing, still they’re bad, it’s known by me.
Changes are fast, changes are slow
Some people, before and now felt,
never ever changed.

Sonnet: God’s Love and Scriptures- Will Not Change
The world of men, women and children, change;
Their food-habits and dressing styles may change;
Their ways of talking, walking, laughing, change;
But Bible’s words are true and never change!
Man’s outlook and his sense of values change;
The weather, climate, seasons also change;
The water of rivers and seas may change,
But Scripture’s words are true and never change!
Man’s needs in life and ambitions may change
Man’s occupations, moral values, change
Man’s goals and approaches also may change,
But Holy Scripture’s words will never change.
The devils too, their tempting tactics, change;
God’s love for man is same and will not change.

Appreciate
How can a women be so fine but yet so ugly?
When a man does what he can and she still has the nerve to get grudgy.
It makes no since, how a women feels the need to want.
As if her looks can change the perspective of what her man acheives to get what she want.
A man will do his best to keep his women at a glow.
No man, who loves his women, wants her outdoors, looking like a hoe.
A women should appreciate all the things a real man does.
A real man takes care of home and Maybe, get your hair and nails done. Lol

Think of the child
What will elders think? What will colleagues think?
What will families and relations think?
Such feelings are gone from women’s brain.
Dating is frequent; mating is common.
Marriage and virginity are redundant.
Lovers are changed as friends are changed.
No woman is exclusive to any man.
The society’s appeal to women:
Be true to your mate whom you bore a child
And let the child identifies its father.
Your progeny must grow on a healthy ground.

Soon we saw that money going to women brought much more benefit to the family than money going to the men. So we changed our policy and gave a high priority to women. As a result, now 96% of our four million borrowers in Grameen Bank are women.

If You Could Change It (Would You Change It?)
You were born without a mother,
You were born with a cruel older brother
If it could change,
Would you change it?
You were brought up without any respect for you,
You were sick and tired of it, you're through
If you could change it,
Would you change it?
If only I saw what you had seen,
Maybe things wouldn't have been
You don't trust, anymore,
You don't love, anymore,
And I wish I could have changed it,
Every single bit,
So you'd love me better.
If it could change,
Would you change it?

Eliab
Mankind has not changed at all!
And these acts of wars are for us all;
But blessed are those who keep the laws.
Eliab, come and let us teach the people how to love one another;
For their swords had made women childless.
Eliab, come and let us change the people from hate;
For their swords had made women childless.
Their rebellion is as witchcraft!
But how many people are they ready to kill in the Valley of Elah?

Women in Beijing in one September
Women by the thousands
come marching by
to mark history among nations.
Never again should women
be sold, battered and raped.
Never again should girl
fetuses in the mother`s womb
be doomed to death.
Never again should the women`s
spirit be extinquished.
Can a gathering of women
among nations make up a change?
The marching of women
prompts attention -
a human bomb to announce
that women`s issues are
crucial to our world`s survival.

change! change! change!
everybody talkin' about change.
change your look,
change your luck,
change your politics,
change your religion...
change the country,
change the world....
change the day!
change your underwear!
loose change, pocket change,
winds of change, march for change....
but all real change begins within...
let's work on that,
and then everything else
will change in turn!
