Hey History (Don’t Go Changin’)
I said, "hey, history
You know, they're gonna blame you for everything
I think it's time you split the scene
Just take my car
Take the keys
And go lay low somewhere for a few centuries
Find some easier company."
'Cause I said, "hey, history
Well, here comes the neighbourhood, man, and you'd better believe
You don't want these folks for an enemy"
[Chorus]
I was standin' on a beach
Couldn't tell if I was awake or asleep
Yeah, the wheels in my head were just spinnin' free
(Doo doo, doo doo)
But I won't let you down
(Doo doo, doo doo)
If you don't go changing
(Doo doo, doo doo)
If you'll just come around
Well, I promise we'll find you
Something to look forward to
Now hey, history
Well, if first time around you don't succeed
Best clear your shit from the library
And become someone else entirely
Instead of drunk in a motel room, watchin' TV
It's the Weather Channel
It's the series finale
And I said hey now, hey, history
Don't just sit there starin' back at eternity
Thinkin' about how things might've been
I was standin' on a beach
You were somewhere up in the distance ahead of me
When the brainiac birds started circlin'
(Yeah)
Oh...
(Doo doo, doo doo)
But I won't let you down
(Doo doo, doo doo)
If you don't go changing
(Doo doo, doo doo)
If you'll just come around
(Doo doo, doo doo)
Well, I promise now
(Doo doo, doo doo)
I won't let you down
If you don't go changin'
If you'll just turn around
You'll see, right behind you
Something to look forward to
Something to look forward to
(Na na na na na...)
Now hey, history
Well I know someday you'll fix everything
And we'll start again, just you and me
