Change

Hey mister
 Hey you
 Pennies or nickels or dimes
 We live in perilous times
 I don't ask you to treat me nice
 I'm not asking for pleasant conversation
 I'm not asking for paradise
 All I'm asking for is change
 Hate me but don't kick my shins
 I'm where your kindness begins
 Please folks do not spend time with me
 I won't ask you to treat me like your mother
 I'm not asking for sympathy
 Yeah
 All I'm asking for is change
 Change the government
 Kill the mayor
 It's not fair, how lives evaporate
 Change the system that made us what we are
 I don't ask for hugs, just need money to but more drugs
 And if you folks pay I'll go away
 Hey
 Hey
 People walk by me with glee
 I am what they'll never be
 I dont ask you to tip your hat
 I don't ask that you notice what I'm wearing
 I could care less for things like that
 All im asking for is change
 Change
 Change
 Change
 Pennies or nickels or dimes
 We live in perilous times
