Everything Changes Lyrics by Scatman John

Scatman’s World

1995

I've been checking out the structure of all I have done
It ain't what I expected but it's what I become
The stress I've created from the lie of my game
Is not on the contract signed with my name
Spoke to a prophet who was bored with the job
Keep singin' and dancin' he'd be telling them off
As soon as you're elected you're gonna be rejected
All you've got is the moment

'Cause everything changes
'Cause everything changes

I'm sitting on an anthill here at the top
My head's become so swollen I expect it to pop
I'm looking for a hole in the wall of my spell
There's gotta be a way a path to the way outta hell
My plane's about to crash;I've been flyin' too high
All that I can do now is surrender or die
If there's anything I wanna say or want you to do
Keep livin' in the moment

Live in the moment
Life is for living in the moment
Live in the moment
Because it lives for you, yeah

My life's so exciting there is no life at all
I'm trying to ride a tidal wave but can't help but fall
Suspended animation ,I'm a puppet on a string
A canary in a cage expected to sing
Yo yo momma,here I am at the top
And your little Johnny boy ain't ever gonna flop
I try to keep my face while I'm keeping up the pace
I'm livin' in the moment

'Cause everything changes
(Scatting by Scatman John)
'Cause everything changes
(Scatting by Scatman John)

Yeah I've looked everywhere and I still haven't found
A new way of livin' that's wholesome and sound
Where speaking is wordless and closed eyes can see
Where all is at peace and we all can be free (yeah)
Everybody's speakin', yet nobody talks
And everybody's shakin' and awalkin' that walk
Unspeakable treasures begin to unfold
From stayin' in the moment

Live in the moment
Life is for living in the moment
Live in the moment
Because it lives for you, yeah

Live in the moment ('Cause everything changes)
Life is for living in the moment (Yeah, 'cause everything changes)
Live in the moment
Because it lives for you, yeah

(Scatting by Scatman John)

Yeah, 'cause everything changes

(Scatting by Scatman John)

Yeah , everything changes

(Scatting by Scatman John)

Live in the moment
Life is for living in the moment
Live in the moment
Because it lives for you, yeah
