People Say They’re Changing Lyrics by Labelle

Moon Shadow

1972

I saw a friend
Just the other day
She said that she
Had finally found her way
Instead of taking
She said that she would like to give
And build a better world for everyone to live
And as she turned I said
Where are you off to now?
Where are you off to now?
People say they're changing
I know they're still the same
They're just re-arranging
Making the rules to fit their game
I won't give in, no
To any foolish ways
It's no change
I can tell a masquerade
Curtain calls
Barren is the actor's stage
Take away the colored lights
Naked is the break of day
Where are you off to now?
Where are you off to now?
Uncle Tom, they tell me he passed away
Overheard
He's resting for another day
Friends will come
And pull him from his grave
Because deep down in every heart
There's a master and a slave
Where are you off to now?
Where are you off to now?
People say they're changing
I know they're still the same
They're just re-arranging
Making the rules to fit their game
Where are you off to now?
Where are you off to now?
People say they're changing
I know they're still the same
They're just re-arranging
Making the rules to fit their game
Where are you off to now?
Where are you off to now?
People, they say they're changing
People, they say they're changing
People, they say they're changing
People, they say they're changing
People, they say they're changing
