Mengelmoes - Three Minutes (To Change the World) Lyrics

We've all heard the wise man say that
Rome wasn't built in a day
And there's only so much that one man can do
Well who said that man can't be you?
I met a woman from a street called cynicism
And a man from a town called hatred
But the traveller with unblemished optimism
Well looking around him, then he said
Gimme a pencil and some paper and a bass guitar and
Three minutes to change the world
Who said four or five seconds won't go too far in
Three minutes to change the world
Uncontaminated singer-writer-actor-dancer
Oh, it seems he was going far
And when people asked him 'how?'
He just had one answer:
Never forget just who you are
So listen to me when I say
We can, a-hey, build Rome in a day
Coz there's only so much that one man can do
But who said that man can't be you?
Gimme a pencil and some paper and a bass guitar and
Three minutes to change the world
Who said four or five seconds won't go too far in
Three minutes to change the world
Because you never never never
Wanna say you're far too clever
Because everything together means
Three minutes to change the world
Coz you got something strange
Going on in your brain
If you think there is no reason why
You should try something different
Life will just pass you by
Coz you got something strange
Going on in your brain
If you think there is no reason why
You should try something different
Life will just pass you by
Coz you got something strange
Going on in your brain
If you think there is no reason why
You should try something different
Life will just pass you by
How many?
Three
How many?
Three
Three minutes to change the world
Three minutes to change the world
Because you never never never
Wanna say you're far too clever
Because everything together means
Three minutes to change
And you never never never
Wanna say you're far too clever
Because everything together means
Three minutes to change the world
