Fishbone - Change Lyrics






There's a light on a hill
That's far out in the distance
And it calls out my name
It calls out for a change
Far away voices
That want their own choices
Sigh for a plea
As it calls out for a change
Ooh Change
Ooh Change
Ooh.......We can change today
Repeat Chorus
Deep inside our hearts
There's a love
You can feel
It's a love that assures
We can cry out for change
The dark clouds that did dance
To the blue skies here before me
Make it plain to my eyes
We can cry out for change
Ooh Change
Ooh Change
Ooh.......

  1. N.... S....

    Wonderful !!!!!

  2. C.... C....

    One of the most beautiful songs of all time. Still relevant, over 30 years later! Amazing vocals from Christopher Dowd. And I want this played at my funeral!

  3. H.... C....

    This song was timely in 1988, I think it’s even more timely now.

  4. B.... E....

    Fishbones take on some bum crying for change? C'mon you know you smiled a lil bit.

  5. D.... C....

    Just brilliant

  6. s.... ....

    There's a light on a hill
    That's far out in the distance
    And it calls out my name
    It calls out for a change

    Far away voices
    That want their own choices
    Sigh for a plea
    As it calls out for a change

    Ooh Change
    Ooh Change
    Ooh...

    To the root of Mankind
    It bellows out bitter winds
    Youth cry out for today
    Strength to cry for a change

    Yet it seems clear to me
    It pounds inside my soul
    Why don't we all see
    We can cry out for a change

    Ooh Change
    Ooh Change
    Ooh...

    We can change today (X3)

    Deep inside our hearts
    There's a love
    You can feel it
    It's a love that assures
    We can cry out for a change

    The dark clouds that did dance
    To the blue skies here before me
    Make it plain to my eyes
    We can cry out for a change

    Ooh Change
    Ooh Change
    Ooh...

  10. F.... B....

    Tear Inducing musical brilliance

  11. t.... n....

    When I listen to the album I can think of nothing more natural than a stage musical telling this story. I wish Fishbone would see the possiblity as well.

  12. C.... C....

    Thanks for everything, Mr. DeLauro.

  13. C.... L....

    Wheres the LOVE button!?!

    C.... L....

    Right on!

  14. M.... w....

    it's sad that ghetto sound wave and change where written almost thirty years ago and the lyrics might be even more relevant today.

    M.... w....

    I am SO glad others are seeing that.

    M.... w....

    they are timeless. the one band that all of the LA bands admired and the ones who could not manage a world wide breakout.

  15. J.... A....

    What a beautiful song. (I have to say it's amusing to wonder about the one assh*** who have it a thumb's down. Really?)

    J.... A....

    Jenefer Angell seriously. To take the time to do that.

  16. M.... M....

    Change is coming X

  17. J.... V....

    What beauty and song writing on the song called "Change"by "Fishbone". This song make me feel while I listen I bought this along time ago, it still has the same effect that it did when I bought it years ago. Beauty at it"s finest.This is such a powerful song and should be heard.

  18. J.... K....

    Thank you for posting this song!  It has an important message.  

  19. C.... H....

    This song and this band have had a deep impact on my life since my high school years, very soulful!

  20. H.... C....

    I could be wrong but I feel there is NOTHING dated about this song. It's still just as relevant today as it was 25 years ago. 

    H.... C....

    Hans Carter Very relevant...

    H.... C....

    the truth has that effect on people. i don't know anything about the behind the scenes of this album's (Truth and Soul's) creation but I will tell you the result is a vital, personal, musically immediate representation of under-heard perspectives. Well arranged and engineered and oozing with profundity. in short : a masterpiece. It should be among the top 30 albums ever made for most discerning listeners.....

    H.... C....

    The guitar and synth effects are a bit dated. Plus, no "Oontz ,oontz, oontz!"

  21. d.... ....

    I have loved this song forever!!! It really takes me back. And it is very appropriate considering Nelson Mandela passing. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones.
